Summary of the contracting process

The Council of the Borough of Kirklees is buying an early intervention and prevention support service for families in Kirklees. The provider will promote, coordinate and facilitate the National Healthy Start scheme, give accident-prevention advice, carry out home interventions, and supply and fit preventative equipment. The service supports four areas of the Healthy Child Programme: transition to parenthood, breastfeeding, healthy weight and nutrition, and health literacy, including managing minor illnesses and reducing accidents. This is a family health support service delivered in Kirklees. The requirement forms part of an existing service and is intended to contribute to the wider aims of the Healthy Child Programme.

The procurement has reached award: Kirklees selected Fresh Futures (NCC), an existing provider. The award is pending, with the standstill period ending 14 October 2026; the planned contract signature date is 16 November 2026. The award date is 5 October 2026. The contract is due to run from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030, with one possible two-year extension to 31 March 2032. The awarded value is £552,740 excluding VAT; the notice gives gross award value as £683,288. The procurement used a competitive flexible procedure under the Provider Selection Regime. Evaluation was based on quality and innovation (25%), equitable access, health inequalities and choice (25%), value (20%), integration, collaboration and sustainability (20%), and social value (10%). Suppliers needed annual turnover of at least £166,500 and positive net worth.

This award shows that Kirklees buys a coordinated, family-facing health service spanning Healthy Start support, home-based accident prevention, advice and preventative equipment. A credible future competitor would need relevant delivery experience, capacity to support families across these activities, and the ability to contribute to the four specified Healthy Child Programme areas. The successful model must bring together health and nutrition support, practical home interventions and equipment fitting, while working collaboratively and sustaining service delivery. Strong proposals would also need to demonstrate how they improve equitable access, reduce health inequalities and facilitate choice, alongside quality, innovation and social value. The procurement was open to small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so organisations of those types can be relevant competitors if they meet the financial viability threshold and technical requirements.
