This procurement aims to support children aged 10-17 and vulnerable adults aged 18 and over within the justice system in collaboration with South Yorkshire Police, and the Youth Justice Services in Sheffield, Barnsley, Rotherham, and Doncaster. This tender, valued at £1,400,000, falls under the health and social work services category, with further classifications in social work and community action programmes. The tender process follows an open procedure and is accepting submissions until 30th September 2024, with the contract period set to commence on 1st October 2024 and end on 2nd October 2024. The geographical scope of the services is the Yorkshire and the Humber region in the United Kingdom. This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities particularly for SMEs and VCSEs that specialise in health and social care. Organisations with expertise in social work, community action programmes, or services provided by youth associations are particularly well-suited to compete. Firms that can demonstrate a strong capability to support vulnerable groups within the specified age ranges and have experience in working collaboratively with law enforcement and youth justice services will find this opportunity advantageous. By securing this contract, businesses can not only expand their service delivery portfolio but also enhance their reputation in the public sector services market. ## Notice Sheffield City Council (the Council), Children Young People and Families seeks to develop a collaborative relationship with South Yorkshire Police (SYP), Sheffield, Barnsley, Rotherham and Doncaster Youth Justice Services, for the provision of Appropriate Adult Services to provide support for Children and Vulnerable Adults in aged 10-17 years (inclusive) or a 'mentally vulnerable' adult (aged 18 years and over) who is being detained by police or is being interviewed voluntarily. The role of an Appropriate Adult is to ensure that the child or vulnerable adult understands their rights and what is happening to them, and to help with communication between them, the police and others involved in custody proceedings where no other suitable adult (e.g. a parent or guardian) is available to undertake that role. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/690a4f54-16a9-452f-8663-a37d1a0452b9 | | 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 | 22 Aug 2024 | | Submission deadline | 30 Sep 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Sep 2024 - 2 Oct 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,400,000 | | 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 | SHEFFIELD CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | SHEFFIELD | | Post town | Sheffield | | Postcode | S1 2HH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE3 South Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE32 Sheffield | | Local authority | Sheffield | | Electoral ward | City | | Westminster constituency | Sheffield Central | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85300000 - Social work and related services - 85310000 - Social work services - 85322000 - Community action programme - 98133110 - Services provided by youth associations ## Release History - 22 Aug 2024 at 12:37 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/690a4f54-16a9-452f-8663-a37d1a0452b9 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/690a4f54-16a9-452f-8663-a37d1a0452b9 22nd August 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=84936&B=UK Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/104130 User / Company ## Notice URLs - http://sheffield.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
