Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Essex County Council is initiating the procurement process for an "Appropriate Adult Reprocurement" contract, aimed at safeguarding the interests of vulnerable populations in the justice system. This tender, classified under the "Health and social work services" category (CPV id: 85000000), covers England, UK, and adopts an open procedure procurement method. The procurement process started on 9th December 2024, with the tender period running from 23rd December 2024 to 27th January 2025. Key dates include the final clarification on 20th January 2025, the contract award on 3rd May 2025, and the contract commencement on 1st July 2025. The contract extends for five years, with an option to prolong for an additional two years, valuing up to £1,337,000.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for companies specializing in health and social work services, particularly those experienced with vulnerable demographics in the legal system. Given the substantial annual budget of £191,000 and a long-term contract duration, enterprises poised to deliver robust and compliant safeguarding services are well-suited to compete. Though the procurement process is particularly accessible via an open procedure, it is vital that interested businesses prepare their proposals meticulously to meet the defined timelines and requirements, thereby securing a foothold in a prominent public sector project.
