This tender is currently in the Award stage, with a minimum contract value of £550,000 and a total value of £650,000. The procurement process follows an open procedure, and relevant stakeholders must submit their offers by 17 October 2016. The contract is set to commence on 3 April 2017 and will run for a duration of three years, concluding on 31 March 2020. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the health and social care sector, particularly those that specialise in mental health services and crisis support. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, as their innovative approaches can enhance service delivery. Companies that can provide therapeutic environments and crisis intervention strategies would be well-suited to compete for this contract, contributing to the enhancement of mental health care in the region. ## Notice Health and social care partners within Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland have recognised the need to ensure that a range of services is available to support service users at a time of mental health crisis. The aim is to offer a greater choice of service and also to enhance the availability and accessibility of such services. Following a successful pilot of the model during 2015 and 2016, the commissioner is looking to award a five year contract for provision of the following service: Crisis houses provide an innovative approach to care and support for people experiencing serious mental illness who may otherwise require admission to hospital. Recent evidence from Sweeney et al (2014), found that, 'therapeutic alliances, service user satisfaction and informal peer support were greater in crisis house environments than on acute wards'. Crisis houses provide a safe and therapeutic environment for immediate crisis support, whilst remaining focused on on-going recovery, building support networks and preventing future crises.
