Summary of the contracting process

The market engagement will conclude on 29th June 2020, with the intention to advertise the tender between August and September 2020. The contracting authority aims to award the contract by the end of October 2020, with the service set to commence on 1st April 2021. The contract is projected to run for three years, with a possible extension of up to three additional years, and a budget of approximately £1.3 million per annum, categorised under health and social work services.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for growth, particularly for businesses in the healthcare, social services, and technology sectors. Companies that specialise in sexual health and reproductive health services, as well as those offering innovative digital solutions for STI testing and contraceptive provision, would be well-suited to participate. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) may benefit from the Council's interest in engaging the market and understanding its capacity to provide these essential services.
