Summary of the contracting process

Torbay Council has completed a procurement process for the provision of free, impartial, confidential, and independent advice aimed at helping individuals overcome various issues such as life events, benefits, debt, disabilities, employment law, and relationships. This tender, classified under the industry category of Other Community, Social, and Personal Services (CPV: 98000000), was designated for delivery in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement, managed through an RFQ under the waiver process, was awarded with an overall budget of £390,192. The contract commenced on 1 April 2020 and is set to conclude on 30 September 2025.
