This project, classified under the industry category of special education services, is located in England, United Kingdom. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender is currently in the planning stage with a submission deadline set for 25th October 2021. The contract is valued at £30,000, with a minimum value of £25,000. The anticipated contract period is from 29th November 2021 to 21st January 2022. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in autism support, special education services, or training development. Companies that can demonstrate a capability in community engagement and co-production methodologies will be well-positioned to compete, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs). Collaborating with key stakeholders to develop a comprehensive capability framework offers a chance to enhance services for autistic individuals, which may lead to additional contract opportunities in related areas. ## Notice The scope of this contract will be to undertake the first phase of the discovery work that is required to develop a comprehensive, co-produced capability framework that will underpin a training curriculum for the implementation of Autism Peer Support roles. This discovery work will be the most important phase of this project and will require a contractor to work closely with the commissioning body. The contractor will be required to design and implement a national engagement strategy to gather information from stakeholders at all levels that will be key to identifying the unique knowledge and skills to deliver peer support to autistic people successfully. The contractor will be expected to lead the strategy development in consultation with HEE and a core project group and will be required to ensure its implementation, identifying, and engaging with key stakeholders and developing the project outputs. It is expected that the successful contractor will adopt a co-produced approach to the design and delivery of this work. The outcomes of this work will be used to guide the next part of the process of developing a comprehensive capability framework which will be to map the autism specific knowledge elements with known generic peer support skills. The contractor will not need to identify these wider generic peer support skills as part of this engagement process. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b35dd037-fd28-4e1d-8b23-369834f0f5d1 | | 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 | 14 Oct 2021 | | Submission deadline | 25 Oct 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 29 Nov 2021 - 21 Jan 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £30,000 | | 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 | HEALTH EDUCATION ENGLAND | | Locality | LEEDS | | Post town | Leeds | | Postcode | LS1 4PL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE42 Leeds | | Local authority | Leeds | | Electoral ward | Little London & Woodhouse | | Westminster constituency | Leeds Central and Headingley | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80340000 - Special education services - 80570000 - Personal development training services ## Release History - 14 Oct 2021 at 17:50 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b35dd037-fd28-4e1d-8b23-369834f0f5d1 - 12 Oct 2021 at 11:34 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/04230ee7-3656-4ecf-8cd4-e23bbd1df31d - 7 Oct 2021 at 14:39 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/eb3ce0ca-335f-452c-af98-6f32a829c92c ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b35dd037-fd28-4e1d-8b23-369834f0f5d1 14th October 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/04230ee7-3656-4ecf-8cd4-e23bbd1df31d 12th October 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/eb3ce0ca-335f-452c-af98-6f32a829c92c 7th October 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://hee.nhs.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
