This procurement falls within the industry category of research and development services and related consultancy services, with a total contract value of £25,000 and a minimum value of £10,000. The tender is currently in the procurement stage, and the tender period concludes on 18th February 2021. The service delivery is expected to take place in London, United Kingdom, starting from 1st March 2021 and lasting until 30th April 2021. This tender is being conducted under an open procurement method. This opportunity is particularly well-suited for small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in mental health services, consultancy, or related fields. The LGA aims to engage suppliers that can provide innovative solutions to enhance the transition process from children's to adult mental health services, addressing the identified challenges. Businesses with expertise in community support models or experience working with local government authorities to improve health and wellbeing initiatives will find this tender an excellent avenue to expand their operations and contribute to impactful service delivery. ## Notice The LGA is the membership organisation for local authorities in England and Wales. We work to promote local government on a national stage, and to support councils to deliver on their responsibilities and work effectively as leaders of place. The LGA's Business Plan 2019/22 outlines the areas in which we prioritise our support for councils. Several of these are directly linked to mental health, including: *Councils lead the way in shaping communities where people feel safe *Councils protect children's wellbeing and keep them safe *Councils have a central role in promoting health and wellbeing locally *Councils work actively with the NHS to build health and care services around the needs of local population For the LGA, children and young people's and adult mental health is an absolute priority. Councils have responsibilities around children's mental health through their children's services and public health services, as well as their role on health and wellbeing boards and as local system leaders. Councils also have statutory responsibilities for adults with mental health disorders through their adult social care duties. In addition, councils are likely to interact with children, young people and adults with mental health conditions through a range of the local services they provide and their responsibilities, from housing and homelessness to their role as a major local employer. A Local Government Association conference in 2019 looked at what works for support to transitions between children's and adults services and found that for mental health: 'We need to adopt models of pastoral support rather than just medical support through children and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) and we need to utilise our existing non-CAMHS workforce'. Transitions between services continue to be a challenge for services and we want to develop resources that helps councils understand their roles and learn from other councils on how they can support young people during this important time. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/329fa547-9e01-47cf-84f2-9a4fad35a911 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 4 Feb 2021 | | Submission deadline | 18 Feb 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Mar 2021 - 30 Apr 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £25,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 3HZ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 4 Feb 2021 at 16:50 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/329fa547-9e01-47cf-84f2-9a4fad35a911 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/329fa547-9e01-47cf-84f2-9a4fad35a911 4th February 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-GB-LONDON:-Effective-transition-from-children's-to-adult's-mental-health-services/8E8EH2B59B Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
