The contract worth £250,000 GBP will initially run for 3 years, with the possibility of extension for up to two additional years. The tender, classified under Health and social work services, is open for participation via an open procedure with a tender deadline of June 26, 2023. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses experienced in providing social work services within the health sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are especially encouraged to participate. Businesses based in the West Midlands, United Kingdom, are well-suited to compete for this commissioning opportunity, which aims to enhance support services for victims and survivors of road-related incidents in the region. ## Notice The Police & Crime Commissioner for Warwickshire provides various support services to victims and survivors of crime in Warwickshire. The Commissioner recognises that there is a need to provide more support for those who are killed and catastrophically injured on Warwickshire roads. Historically, it might be argued such victims and survivors have not been able to access the level of specialist support services as perhaps exist in other areas of crime. It is a matter of concern that road victims are not always perceived as victims and survivors of criminal acts. Yet many deaths and catastrophic injuries arise from collisions that have at their core negligent and culpable driving that results in a criminal charge. Therefore, the Police and Crime Commissioner very much recognises road victims and survivors as those who have suffered as a result of criminal acts. The Commissioner also recognises and respects the massive traumas that are experienced by many when death and catastrophic injury occurs as a result of a sudden and violent road traffic collision. In that context, in 2019 the Commissioner provided grant funding to instigate a pilot project in Warwickshire that became the Warwickshire Independent Road Victim Advisor (IRVA) Service. Funding and delivering this service has been determined to be a universal success. The Commissioner now wishes to make this service more sustainable and fit for the future by making it a commissioned service. The Commissioner is seeking to appoint a suitably experienced service provider to deliver an Independent Road Victims Advocate (IRVA) Service to directly support victims of road death and catastrophic injury in Warwickshire. The contract shall be for an initial period of 3 years with an option to extend for up to two further periods of 1 year each. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/38337a39-c53c-420d-a027-12da4d506200 | | 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 | 24 May 2023 | | Submission deadline | 26 Jun 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Sep 2023 - 30 Sep 2026 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £250,000 | | 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 | WARWICKSHIRE POLICE | | Locality | WARWICKSHIRE | | Post town | Coventry | | Postcode | CV35 7QB | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG1 Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire | | ITL 3 | TLG13 Warwickshire CC | | Local authority | Warwick | | Electoral ward | Warwick All Saints & Woodloes | | Westminster constituency | Warwick and Leamington | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 75 - Administration, defence and social security services - 85 - Health and social work services - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 75200000 - Provision of services to the community - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85100000 - Health services - 85140000 - Miscellaneous health services - 85300000 - Social work and related services - 85310000 - Social work services - 85311100 - Welfare services for the elderly - 85311200 - Welfare services for the handicapped - 85311300 - Welfare services for children and young people - 85312000 - Social work services without accommodation - 85312300 - Guidance and counselling services - 85312310 - Guidance services - 85312400 - Welfare services not delivered through residential institutions - 85312500 - Rehabilitation services - 85323000 - Community health services - 98000000 - Other community, social and personal services - 98133100 - Civic betterment and community facility support services ## Release History - 24 May 2023 at 16:47 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/38337a39-c53c-420d-a027-12da4d506200 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/38337a39-c53c-420d-a027-12da4d506200 24th May 2023 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=68838&B=BLUELIGHT Please follow link to access the tender, express interest & submit bid on the BlueLight EU Supply portal. - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/86783 Information about Warwickshire Police. ## Notice URLs - https://www.warwickshire.police.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
