The tender, which was published on 7th March 2017, is open for submissions until 24th March 2017 at 23:59 UTC. The total budget allocated for this service is £70,000 for the duration of one year, from 2nd May 2017 to 1st May 2018. This initiative falls under the health and social work services category, and the procurement is being conducted through an open procedure, encouraging participation from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and user-led organisations. This tender presents significant opportunities for growth for businesses specialising in mental health services, user engagement, and peer mentoring. Given the focus on local stakeholders and those with lived experiences of mental health challenges, businesses that have a strong community presence and expertise in delivering tailored user involvement strategies would be particularly well-suited to compete. Success in this tender could also lead to future contracts associated with the wider Advocacy Services initiative, potentially providing a steady stream of work for the successful bidder. ## Notice The London Borough of Hackney (the Council) and City & Hackney CCG (CCG) are seeking a suitable organisation to host a mental health user-led involvement service to support the Council and CCG in the commissioning of services for people with mental health needs in The London Borough of Hackney and the City of London and a peer mentoring service. The CCG provides health services for the City of London & Hackney populations. The service provider will have to evidence engagement across both these areas. An appropriate organisation needs to be local to Hackney and independent of any currently commissioned provider networks funded by the Council and CCG. We would encourage SMEs and user led organisations to bid. The Service will facilitate consultation and liaison with, and offer engagement opportunities to, the widest range of adults 18 years and older who have lived experience and expertise of mental health services. This contract has a fixed budget of PS70,000 for user involvement and peer mentoring for one year 2017/18. It is expected that this service will be provided in future years as part of the London Borough of Hackney's Advocacy Services contract. The successful service provider will be expected to bid to continue providing this contract as part of a wider Advocacy Services contract that will start in 2018 and run for three years; if not successful, the provider will have to transfer all service users to a new supplier. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/47d4d617-2b33-42e5-81d0-adefdfde3781 | | 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 | 7 Mar 2017 | | Submission deadline | 24 Mar 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 May 2017 - 1 May 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £70,000 | | 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 | LONDON BOROUGH OF HACKNEY | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E8 1DY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI41 Hackney and Newham | | Local authority | Hackney | | Electoral ward | Hackney Central | | Westminster constituency | Hackney South and Shoreditch | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 7 Mar 2017 at 16:08 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/47d4d617-2b33-42e5-81d0-adefdfde3781 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/47d4d617-2b33-42e5-81d0-adefdfde3781 7th March 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=7eeab355-23f8-e611-80dd-005056b64545 London Tender Portal ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
