This procurement falls under the health services category and is targeted at businesses located in the United Kingdom. The tender is currently in the active stage with an end date set for 17 September 2020. The contract period is expected to commence on 26 October 2020, lasting for an initial period of twelve months, with potential for extension based on the child's evolving needs. The procurement process follows an open procedure, inviting a wide range of service providers to participate. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those with expertise in child care and complex health needs. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to apply. Firms that can demonstrate skilled staff capable of providing high-quality support are well-suited for this contract, which may lead to longer-term engagement as it evolves in response to the child's needs. ## Notice Warrington Borough Council and Warrington CCG are looking to appoint a skilled and experienced provider to support foster carers in caring and supporting a young child (4 years old) as she transitions from a hospital environment where she has remained since birth. Due to the extremely complex nature of the child's condition, staff must be highly skilled, trained and qualified to support the maximum health and well-being as she moves to a more local hospital setting near foster carers in North Wales, and then onto her foster placement. The provider will then provide ongoing support to the child and foster carers as required. The contract will initially be for a duration of twelve months whilst the child settles with foster carers. Once the child's emerging needs are identified this is likely to be a longer term contract that will last several years and beyond. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b38d34fc-f9cd-4e0f-a219-571a4b6f7e17 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Aug 2020 | | Submission deadline | 17 Sep 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 26 Oct 2020 - 25 Oct 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | WARRINGTON BOROUGH COUNCIL | | Locality | WARRINGTON | | Post town | Warrington | | Postcode | WA1 2NH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD6 Cheshire | | ITL 3 | TLD61 Warrington | | Local authority | Warrington | | Electoral ward | Bewsey and Whitecross | | Westminster constituency | Warrington South | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services ## Release History - 18 Aug 2020 at 09:42 - TenderCancellation - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b38d34fc-f9cd-4e0f-a219-571a4b6f7e17 - 17 Aug 2020 at 15:13 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/27dc0691-2885-417f-bab3-aa458712dc3d ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b38d34fc-f9cd-4e0f-a219-571a4b6f7e17 18th August 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/27dc0691-2885-417f-bab3-aa458712dc3d 17th August 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.warrington.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
