This procurement process falls within the social security services category and is located in the North West of the United Kingdom. The tender is currently in the active stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 29th June 2018. The total budget for this evaluation service is £500,000, and the contract is scheduled to commence on 1st March 2019, running through to 31st March 2022. The procurement is being conducted through a selective method, specifically a competitive dialogue approach. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in evaluation services, social work assistance, or health-related consultancy to expand their operations. Companies that are small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the GMCA is keen to collaborate with a partner that can adapt and innovate in line with their 'test and learn' approach. With the potential to impact around 14,000 individuals at risk of unemployment, this tender could significantly enhance a business's portfolio while contributing to social welfare in the region. ## Notice The Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) is seeking tenders for the evaluation of an early intervention service (called 'Working Well Early Help') which will support people in Greater Manchester who are at risk of falling out of the labour market, or who are newly unemployed with a health condition or disability. We are in the process of selecting a Working Well Early Help (WWEH) delivery partner who will deliver and manage the service on our behalf. WWEH will run for three years commencing in March 2019 and will aim to support around 14,000 people over its duration. The evaluation of WWEH will commence in November 2018 and continue through to mid-2022. GMCA is taking a 'test and learn' approach to the design and delivery of WWEH and so is looking for an evaluation partner who will be adaptive and collaborate with us to support our approach to learning and development within this field. The evaluation partner will be expected to work closely with our chosen WWEH delivery partner to share information and aid the process of evaluation to establish how effective this type of service is at helping people return to work more quickly than they otherwise would. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0c95fa4-245d-4a64-a3e8-ed4726a94e23 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Competitive dialog | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 24 May 2018 | | Submission deadline | 29 Jun 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Mar 2019 - 31 Mar 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £500,000 | | 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 | GREATER MANCHESTER COMBINED AUTHORITY | | Locality | STRETFORD | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M32 0TH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD34 Greater Manchester South West | | Local authority | Trafford | | Electoral ward | Gorse Hill & Cornbrook | | Westminster constituency | Stretford and Urmston | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 75 - Administration, defence and social security services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 75000000 - Administration, defence and social security services - 79000000 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 24 May 2018 at 21:41 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0c95fa4-245d-4a64-a3e8-ed4726a94e23 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a0c95fa4-245d-4a64-a3e8-ed4726a94e23 24th May 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.greatermanchester-ca.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
