## Summary

Peterborough City Council is seeking bids for the "School-Aged Health Improvement and Prevention Service (SHIPS)" under the competitive process route of The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. This tender, classified under miscellaneous health services (CPV: 85140000), focuses on enhancing the health of young people aged 5-19/25 through an integrated place-based model in Peterborough. Interested organisations or consortiums are invited to submit their proposals by 6th January 2025, with the contract period commencing on 1st April 2025 and concluding on 31st March 2027. The estimated contract value is £840,000 GBP, and the procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with the procurement method detailed as "Other -".

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in health services, particularly those with experience in school health programs and public health interventions. The scope of SHIPS includes working with a diverse range of education settings and community stakeholders to promote health, reduce health inequalities, and support young adults up to 25 years old in specific areas like sexual health and SEND. Businesses with strong local connections to Peterborough and a focus on health improvement services will find this tender especially beneficial for growth and community impact.

## Notice

This process is being run under The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 following 'The Competitive Process' route (Regulation 11) which is a formal bidding procedure, under which the contract is advertised, and all interested organisations/ consortium can bid. The Authority has identified the competitive process as the best fit for selecting a provider to deliver SHIPS. Direct Award Processes A, B and C have been discounted as not applicable. The Authority does not believe that it can identify the most suitable provider without a competitive process, and therefore the Most Suitable Provider Process has also been discounted. This School-aged Health Improvement and Prevention Service (SHIPS) will be delivered across Peterborough in line with the emerging integrated place-based 5-19/25 model. This will add system capacity to the co-ordination of place-based services for this cohort as well as the provision of a 'Healthy Schools' online resource and accreditation scheme, and delivery of Public Health Interventions (PHI). The vision for the service is that it engages all types of education settings staff, students, governors, parents/carers and their wider communities across Peterborough to work together to enable local children, young people, their families/carers and communities to be healthy, happy and achieve, and the reduction of health inequalities. It is recognised that in spite of the name of service, there is an expectation that the service will work with young adults that are beyond school-age, up to the age of 25 for some elements of the service. This will notably be in relation to sexual health and SEND.
