Notice Information

Notice Title

Youth and Play Services Approved List

Notice Description

The procurement process is structured to contain 2 lots. Lot 1 is for Play provision and seeks to appoint play providers capable of delivering play opportunities for CYP aged 5 to 14 years across the county borough. Lot 2 is for Youth provision and seeks to appoint youth providers capable of delivering youth opportunities for CYP aged 11 to 25 years across the county borough . Both opportunities will require providers to deliver freely chosen open access opportunities from various sites across RCT. The services to be procured under this ITT are applicable to regulations 74-77 under chapter 3 for Social and other specific services known as "Light Touch Regime". Therefore, the Council is not obliged to comply with the full extent of the Regulations, only those parts which apply to the Light Touch Regime. This process will operate as an 'Approved List' that will quality assure providers. In order to obtain a position on the 'Approved List' providers will need to pass a questionnaire. The process will run in 2 Stages: 1st Stage will be open for a reduced period of time to capture as many responses as possible. This will close for evaluation at 12:00 22nd June 2022. Once Providers have been notified following evaluation, 1st Stage will shut down, and the 2nd Stage will commence. The 2nd Stage will remain open and available for the approved list duration (2 year initial period, and options to extend on an annual basis subject to reviews and funding), allowing new providers to express their interest and apply to join one or both Lots at any time. Unsuccessful Providers will also be given the opportunity to reapply until successful.
