This process is currently at the tender stage with submissions being accepted until 24 February 2026, at 15:00 GMT. The procurement is carried out via an open procedure aimed at establishing a service or a collective of services to offer early, responsive support to mental and emotional wellbeing concerns among primary school children in Angus. The total contract value is £300,000 over a contract duration of two years, with the possibility of a one-year extension. The bidding process requires electronic submissions through the Public Contracts Scotland platform, ensuring seamless submission and communication.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the healthcare and social services sectors, particularly those specialising in children's mental health services. Organisations that can deliver innovative, preventative, and integrative mental health solutions will find this tender notably beneficial. Small to medium-sized enterprises with established experience in community-based mental health support, capable of collaborating with local services and offering holistic approaches, are well-suited to compete. The tender’s focus on early intervention and integrated support aligns with businesses aiming to expand their services into public health contracts within the Angus region. This opportunity encourages suppliers to emphasise quality, with a weighting of 60% prioritised during evaluation against a 40% emphasis on price.

Notice Title

Provision of a Childrens Mental Health & Wellbeing Service

Notice Description

1We are seeking either one service or a collaboration of services to deliver this support to children and families in the Angus area. The service(s) in Angus will provide mental health and emotional wellbeing support for primary school age children who live in Angus, in addition to what can be provided through universal services. The service(s) will provide responsive, early support to concerns in respect of a child's mental wellbeing. This will be part of a continuum of additional support provided by a range of services within the community and, where necessary, signpost to other services for example Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) to ensure a whole system approach. The service(s) will develop community support to address issues of mental and emotional distress and wellbeing rather than mental illness that may be more appropriately met through a more specialist service such as CAMHS. The service(s) must support an approach based on prevention and early intervention
