Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council intends to commission integrated specialist public health nursing services for children, young people and families across the East Riding of Yorkshire. The service will cover children and young people from minus nine months to 19 years, or 25 years where applicable, including the public health elements of the Healthy Child Programme. It will provide universal and targeted public health support, expert information, assessments and interventions, early identification of additional needs, and action to improve health outcomes and reduce inequalities. Delivery will involve appropriately trained and qualified staff, led by Specialist Community Public Health Nurses. The provider will work with maternity, health, education, social care, safeguarding, police, voluntary, private and independent services.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the council has stated its intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The planned service is a single lot for health and social work services, with an estimated gross value of £20,500,000. The anticipated contract period is 1 December 2027 to 30 November 2032, with a possible extension to 30 November 2034. The council expects to publish a future notice by 18 January 2027. It is conducting preliminary market engagement, including a provider and stakeholder session expected on Tuesday 8 September at County Hall, Beverley, with engagement activity scheduled through 31 October 2026. The procurement is above the relevant threshold.

The future requirement is likely to suit established providers of community public health nursing, health visiting, school nursing or integrated children’s health services, particularly organisations able to serve a large eligible population across the East Riding. Relevant teams should be able to provide universal and targeted interventions for babies, children, young people and families, identify safeguarding and wider support needs, and demonstrate improved health and wellbeing outcomes. The specification points to a workforce led by Specialist Community Public Health Nurses, supported by appropriately trained and qualified staff, including registered nurses or midwives with specialist training and registration. Strong partnership capability will be important, including coordinated work across health, education, social care, maternity, primary and secondary care, police and voluntary-sector services.
