## Summary

Sheffield City Council has initiated an open tender process for the "Creche Provision" project, aimed at providing childcare services for parenting programmes across Sheffield, Yorkshire and the Humber. The contract, valued at £45,000, commenced on April 22, 2019, and will run until March 31, 2022. The tender period concluded on April 5, 2019, and this procurement falls under the category of health and social work services, reflecting a vital community need addressed by the Multi Agency Support Team (MAST).

This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) engaged in childcare services. Businesses proficient in providing flexible childcare solutions, particularly those with experience in early years provision and community support, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The requirement for adaptable staffing in response to fluctuating demand further emphasizes the need for providers who can demonstrate resilience and versatility in service delivery.

## Notice

Sheffield's Multi Agency Support Team (MAST) are implementing a roll out of parenting programmes across the city and require creche provision for these from April 2019. These range from one off discussion groups and seminars to longer specialist parenting courses. To reduce the barriers to parents being able to access these programmes we require high quality creche provision to provide childcare whilst parents are taking part in the various aspects of parenting. The requirement for MAST is detailed below for indicative purposes. This may be subject to change and some flexibility is required due to the nature of the requirement. For example numbers of children attending creche may go up or down with little notice. This would require the provider to be flexible with the amount of creche workers provided. We may pre-book a term in advance with all the dates and then may need to reduce the number of creche workers a week before if the provision needed is lower, for example.
