The Provision of the Early Help Digital Intervention Service
Notice Description
This is an Award Notice following a failed tender procedure for the Provision of The Early Help Digital Intervention Service in Hertfordshire.
Lot Information
Lot 1
This is an Award Notice. Hertfordshire County Council have awarded a contract for The Provision of the Early Help Digital Intervention Service in Hertfordshire, following an unsuccessful procurement in October 2021 for which there were no bids.
Procurement Information
Following systemic concerns about the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on mental ill health and people with learning disabilities, Niche consultancy was commissioned to undertake a demand and capacity review to help us understand potential impact due to suppressed and additional demand, with recommendations how this could be mitigated. Included in their recommendations was to substantially increase the investment in and prominence of early help intervention and resilience support for children and young people. Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) went out to tender for The Provision of the Early Help Digital Intervention Service in Hertfordshire in October 2021 (Publication Reference 2021/S 000-025737 dated 14th October 2021). Despite significant interest shown at the extremely well attended PPME Event in June 2021, no bids were received as a result of the tender process. Due to the failed tender exercise and increased demand for this service HCC progressed with the option of a direct award. HCC engaged with possible providers for this service in a manner that treated them equally and without discrimination, however only one provider was deemed to fulfil the Early Help Digital Intervention service specification and was asked to provide a full proposal that met the requirements (which were the same as those initially sought under the failed procurement). As only one proposal was provided and was suitable, HCC is of the view that the contract award is in compliance with Regulation 32(2)(a). The Contract will be for 2 years with the option for extend for up to 24 months. The value stated include the value of any extension.
