Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council (RCT CBC), focuses on establishing an 'Approved List' for Youth and Play Services, categorised under social services. This tender is currently in the active stage of its second lot of applications, allowing new providers to express interest until the deadline on 19th July 2024. The buying organisation operates from Tonypandy, United Kingdom, and businesses can submit their proposals electronically through eTenderwales. Key services include providing play opportunities for children aged 5 to 14 and youth opportunities for those aged 11 to 25 throughout the county borough.

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the social services sector, particularly those specialising in youth and play provision. Companies that focus on engaging children and young people through recreational, educational, and cultural activities would be particularly well-suited to compete for these contracts. The open tender procedure allows a range of providers, including local community organisations, to deliver freely accessible services, enhancing community involvement and support for youth development across Rhondda Cynon Taf.

Notice Title

Youth and Play Services Approved List (Stage 2)

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 approved list is in its 2nd Stage, meaning the approved list 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.
