JISAs and CTFs are long term tax-advantaged saving accounts for children up to the age of 18. To date the scheme has been managed by a contractor and the Department is seeking a supplier to continue managing and administering the scheme. Some of the aspects of the service required include opening accounts for these vulnerable young people with the initial Government contribution of PS200. The supplier will also be ensuring that these accounts are properly operated and invested appropriately with a range of JISA providers. The successful bidder will raise additional voluntary contributions, through donations or fund-raising, to build the value of the accounts. They will also provide financial education to help ensure responsible use of the funds when the JISAs mature at age 18. During 2017, or at a later date to be agreed between the relevant parties, the appointed supplier will also be required to assume management responsibility for approximately 11,000-15,000 CTFs of looked after children from the Official Solicitor for England and Wales; the Official Solicitor for Northern Ireland; or the Accountant of Court (for Scotland). As the corporate parent for children in care, the Government's view is that this group of vulnerable children need the financial help that their peers receive from their parents. The JISA is seen therefore as a modest start in building a nest-egg for these young people, with the expectation that their local authorities will also add to the account, so that by the time these vulnerable young people turn age 18, they will have something more substantial than PS200. The contract is estimated to be awarded by late October. The service will commence on 2 January 2017 and end 29 March 2019, with a possible extension period of up to a further 12 months. The value of the contract will be up to a maximum of PS283,000 per annum, or less (inclusive of VAT) Additional information: Bidders should be mindful of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE). It is the responsibility of tenderers to consider whether or not TUPE applies in the circumstances of this contract and tender accordingly.", "datePublished": "2016-09-05T11:50:32+01:00", "status": "complete", "classification": { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "66000000", "description": "Financial and insurance services" }, "items": [ { "id": "1", "deliveryAddresses": [ { "countryName": "British Oversea Territories" }, { "countryName": "Channel Islands" }, { "countryName": "Europe" }, { "countryName": "Isle of Man" }, { "countryName": "Rest of the World" }, { "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, { "countryName": "British Oversea Territories" }, { "countryName": "Channel Islands" }, { "countryName": "Europe" }, { "countryName": "Isle of Man" }, { "countryName": "Rest of the World" }, { "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, { "countryName": "British Oversea Territories" }, { "countryName": "Channel Islands" }, { "countryName": "Europe" }, { "countryName": "Isle of Man" }, { "countryName": "Rest of the World" }, { "countryName": "United Kingdom" } ] } ], "value": { "amount": 500000, "currency": "GBP" }, "procurementMethod": "open", "procurementMethodDetails": "Open procedure", "tenderPeriod": { "endDate": "2016-10-03T23:59:59+01:00" }, "contractPeriod": { "startDate": "2017-01-02T00:00:00Z", "endDate": "2019-03-29T23:59:59Z" }, "suitability": { "sme": true, "vcse": true }, "mainProcurementCategory": "services", "documents": [ { "id": "1", "documentType": "tenderNotice", "description": "Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder", "url": "https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1537f3b-9abe-4c56-b08c-de678d2113cf", "datePublished": "2016-09-05T11:50:32+01:00", "format": "text/html", "language": "en" }, { "id": "2", "documentType": "application/msword", "description": "Invitation to tender letter", "url": "https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3d06a847-57f1-4c24-916b-1eb2f4a5a76c", "format": "application/msword" } ] }, "parties": [ { "id": "GB-SRS-sid4gov.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/QfDr2jb7", "name": "Department For Education", "identifier": { "legalName": "Department For Education", "scheme": "GB-SRS", "id": "sid4gov.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/QfDr2jb7" }, "address": { "streetAddress": "Sanctuary Buildings, Great Smith Street", "locality": "London", "postalCode": "SW1P 3BT", "countryName": "England" }, "contactPoint": { "name": "Gurdawar Jassi", "email": "Procurement.CIC@education.gsi.gov.uk" }, "roles": [ "buyer" ] }, { "id": "GB-CFS-45304", "name": "The Share Foundation", "identifier": { "legalName": "The Share Foundation" }, "address": { "streetAddress": "Oxford House, Oxford Road, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, HP21 8SZ" }, "details": { "scale": "large", "vcse": false }, "roles": [ "supplier" ] } ], "buyer": { "id": "GB-SRS-sid4gov.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/QfDr2jb7", "name": "Department For Education" }, "awards": [ { "id": "ocds-b5fd17-206c18d8-adca-11e6-9901-0019b9f3037b-1", "status": "active", "date": "2016-12-06T00:00:00Z", "datePublished": "2017-01-20T13:42:33Z", "value": { "amount": 531624, "currency": "GBP" }, "suppliers": [ { "id": "GB-CFS-45304", "name": "The Share Foundation" } ], "contractPeriod": { "startDate": "2017-01-02T00:00:00Z", "endDate": "2019-03-29T23:59:59Z" }, "documents": [ { "id": "1", "documentType": "awardNotice", "description": "Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder", "url": "https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/72c3a367-2df0-4c36-b96b-1c643d156d58", "datePublished": "2017-01-20T13:42:33Z", "format": "text/html", "language": "en" }, { "id": "2", "documentType": "application/msword", "description": "Invitation to tender letter", "url": "https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/9bf0cd55-38a2-4ea2-bba0-261d3495cdbd", "format": "application/msword" }, { "id": "3", "documentType": "application/msword", "description": "Invitation to tender letter", "url": "https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/86531950-7bd6-486b-8f69-8217b82e96ec", "format": "application/msword" }, { "id": "4", "documentType": "contractNotice", "description": "Contract", "url": "https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/SupplierAttachment/3a28f96e-c8ad-47e1-b0e0-0ff1d57b09ed", "format": "application/pdf" } ] } ] }
