This public procurement opportunity falls under the industry category of community action programmes and is located in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is currently active, with a tender period ending on November 28, 2022, and a contract period starting on December 30, 2022, and ending on March 31, 2024. This tender presents an opportunity for service providers with expertise in evidence-based therapeutic interventions to support children, young people, and families across Merseyside. Business entities focusing on mental health, well-being, and community-based services would be well-suited to compete in this open procedure tender. Potential bidders should be prepared to demonstrate cultural intelligence and competence to address community needs effectively. The contract offers a maximum budget of £1.2 million per borough, aiming to reach a minimum of 200 families per borough/programme and prioritizing early intervention and prevention approaches. ## Notice Merseyside Violence Reduction Partnership (MVRP) is commissioning for Service(s) over 15-months (optional contract extension of further 12 months) to provide evidence-based therapeutic interventions using a whole family approach. 'Whole family' therapeutic approaches means that family members are clinically triaged for their individual needs, but interventions are co-ordinated/concurrently delivered. This Service specification for tender has been designed to respond to the needs of children, young people and families from across Merseyside, as identified by them. There is clear need for earlier mental health and wellbeing support for families right across Merseyside and so this tender is open to applications from all boroughs equally. There is a maximum budget of PS1.2 million per borough to reach a minimum number of 200 families per borough/programme. We advise bidders to seek funding only for what they require/can deliver in the timeframe. Where there is more than one high quality proposal, there may be scope in this budget to deliver more than one Service in different areas of Merseyside. However, MVRP will only fund one Service per borough and so encourages partnership/collaborative applications. The Service(s) should take a primary or secondary / early intervention and prevention approach, receiving referrals from a combination of community/non-statutory and statutory services. This is not a crisis intervention service(s). The Service(s) will be community-based in Merseyside and will need to evidence cultural intelligence/competence to best meet the needs of the community, addressing inequality of access to mental health and wellbeing support. It aims to support recovery from trauma/adversity and build resilience to reduce vulnerabilities of children and young people from experiencing violence. Bidders will need to evidence social value. MVRP are looking for Provider(s) who are equipped to mobilise quickly to explore this early intervention, whole family approac ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/814b650d-6b1e-450b-a82c-d09a03b8deb3 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 25 Oct 2022 | | Submission deadline | 28 Nov 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Dec 2022 - 31 Mar 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | MERSEYSIDE POLICE - PROCUREMENT DEPARTMENT | | Locality | LIVERPOOL | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L3 3AN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD72 Liverpool | | Local authority | Liverpool | | Electoral ward | Everton West | | Westminster constituency | Liverpool Riverside | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85322000 - Community action programme ## Release History - 25 Oct 2022 at 15:34 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/814b650d-6b1e-450b-a82c-d09a03b8deb3 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/814b650d-6b1e-450b-a82c-d09a03b8deb3 25th October 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=54342&B=BLUELIGHT Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/32215 User / Company ## Notice URLs - http://www.merseyside.police.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
