This initiative falls under the social work and related services category and is designated for the Yorkshire and the Humber region in the United Kingdom. The procurement process is currently in the open tender stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 20th November 2017. The total value of the contract is £1,720,000, and the contract period is expected to run from 1st April 2018 to 31st March 2020. This tender presents opportunities for growth particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that can provide services aimed at supporting families with complex needs. With a focus on addressing issues such as crime, educational truancy, and domestic violence, businesses offering social support services, youth work, and family intervention programmes would be ideally positioned to compete for this contract in Bradford and District. ## Notice Bradford Council wish to procure a keyworker service for vulnerable families living in Bradford & District that meet the national 'Troubled Families' criteria and the locally set criteria. Providers will provide key work support through a 'Think Family Model;' with one worker, one family, one plan. This service will be a key part of the work in the Bradford District to achieve the outcomes required for families as part of the 'Troubled Families' payment by results programme. As part of the whole family approach we are also asking that Providers will provide targeted youth support for children and young people (age 8-13) within a family where additional needs have been identified . Bradford Families First aims to support families and young people who are experiencing a mixture of problems in their lives which include: * parents or children involved in crime or anti-social behaviour * children who have gone missing from home or education * children who are not attending school regularly * children who need help; that is children of all ages, who are identified as in need of a targeted early help intervention * adults out of work or at risk of financial exclusion or young people at risk of worklessness * families affected by domestic violence or abuse * parents or children with a range of physical and mental health problems * housing and debt problems * substance misuse issues. The services to cover Bradford & District will be divided into four lots which are based on our current early help clusters Lot 1 Bradford East, Lot 2 Bradford South, Lot3 Bradford West & Lot4 Airedale, Wharfedale & Keighley. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7836388d-7f8b-42d9-bb87-9a61e3a229ae | | 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 | 20 Oct 2017 | | Submission deadline | 20 Nov 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2018 - 31 Mar 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,720,000 | | 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 | BRADFORD METROPOLITAN DISTRICT COUNCIL | | Locality | BRADFORD | | Post town | Bradford | | Postcode | BD1 1NN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE41 Bradford | | Local authority | Bradford | | Electoral ward | City | | Westminster constituency | Bradford West | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85300000 - Social work and related services ## Release History - 20 Oct 2017 at 13:14 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7836388d-7f8b-42d9-bb87-9a61e3a229ae ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7836388d-7f8b-42d9-bb87-9a61e3a229ae 20th October 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.bradford.gov.uk/bmdc ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
