This tender falls under the social services industry category and employs an open procurement method. The procurement stage has reached the award phase with the contract being awarded on 21 July 2025. The service is governed by Welsh devolved regulations, with a contract period commencing on 1 August 2025 and potentially extending until 31 March 2028, allowing for two additional 12-month renewal options. The awarded contract value is £600,000, and the successful supplier is Phoenix Domestic Abuse Services. The Council aimed to provide targeted interventions and support for dealing with domestic abuse, ensuring the wellbeing and safety of children, families, and the community.
