Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council has completed its procurement process for the "Connect to Work Sheffield: Individual Placement and Support (IPS)" initiative, aimed at supporting disadvantaged groups through tailored employment services. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically job search services, and is funded by the UK Government's Connect to Work programme and Economic Trailblazer. This process utilised an open procurement method with a substantial budget of £1.8 million over a four-year contract period commencing 1st March 2026, concluding 31st March 2030. The procurement covered the UKE32 region, targeting cohorts including carers, refugees, veterans, ex-offenders, homeless individuals, and victims of various forms of abuse. Nine contracts were awarded to multiple suppliers, with the contract award notices published on 16th February 2026 and a signature due by 28th February 2026.

The tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses, especially those that are SMEs or voluntary community sector enterprises, focusing on rehabilitation and support services. With each contract valued at £217,416 ex VAT and a requirement to assist 90 out-of-work individuals and 20 in-work participants, companies skilled in workforce integration for marginalised groups will find this particularly advantageous. Businesses located or operating within the Sheffield region, or those familiar with its social landscapes, will be aptly positioned to deliver impactful outcomes. Further, organisations equipped to offer IPS within diverse communities will be integral to achieving the programme’s targets and social value goals, contributing to job starts for unemployed participants and retention of employed individuals.
