This procurement falls under the health services category and has a total value of £24,150,000. The tender period is set to close on 1st November 2017, while the contract is expected to commence on 1st April 2018 and run until 31st March 2025. The procurement is being conducted through an open procedure, welcoming submissions from a range of providers. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those with expertise in childhood health and public health programmes. Companies providing innovative solutions, research-based interventions, or integrated service models catering to children and families will be well-suited to compete. The emphasis on collaboration suggests that organisations might also consider forming consortia to enhance their service offerings and drive improvements in health outcomes in Halton. ## Notice Giving every child the best start in life is crucial to reducing health inequalities across the life course. The foundations for virtually every aspect of human development - physical, intellectual and emotional - are set in place during pregnancy and in early childhood. What happens during these early years has lifelong effects on many aspects of health and wellbeing, educational achievement and economic status. Universal and specialist public health services for children are important in promoting the health and wellbeing of all children and reducing inequalities including: * Delivery of the Healthy Child Programme (HCP); * Assessment and intervention when a need is identified; and * On-going work with children and families with multiple, complex or safeguarding needs in partnership with other key services including early years, children's social care and primary care. The Health Visiting Service and the Family Nurse Partnership work across a number of stakeholders, settings and organisations to lead delivery of the Healthy Child Programme 0-5 (HCP), a prevention and early intervention public health programme that lies at the heart of the universal service for children and families and aims to support parents at this crucial stage of life, promote child development, improve child health outcomes and ensure that families at risk are identified at the earliest opportunity. The School Nurse Team promotes the holistic health of the school aged population (5 - 19), thereby enabling them to realise their potential. They encourage children and young people to think about their health and support them to become responsible for their own health and wellbeing as they progress through childhood and adolescence. In order to maximise the impact of the two teams (the 0-5 service and the 5-19 service as described above), Halton is seeking to create an integrated 0-19 service (or up to 24 for young people with a disability or complex health care need) that will deliver the Healthy Child Programme and provide both universal and targeted support services to help improve the health and wellbeing of children, young people and families in Halton. The Council seeks to secure a service that will offer specialist skills in each of the areas of need identified above combined with a strong background in research and innovation that will drive forward Halton's key priority of improving the life chances of all children and young people. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7484f320-6126-4f17-a8f8-6534a8f5d0d6 | | 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 | 10 Oct 2017 | | Submission deadline | 1 Nov 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2018 - 31 Mar 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £24,150,000 | | 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 | HALTON BOROUGH COUNCIL | | Locality | WIDNES | | Post town | Warrington | | Postcode | WA8 7EA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD71 East Merseyside | | Local authority | Halton | | Electoral ward | Central & West Bank | | Westminster constituency | Widnes and Halewood | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services ## Release History - 10 Oct 2017 at 10:39 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7484f320-6126-4f17-a8f8-6534a8f5d0d6 - 10 Oct 2017 at 10:34 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7484f320-6126-4f17-a8f8-6534a8f5d0d6 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7484f320-6126-4f17-a8f8-6534a8f5d0d6 10th October 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www2.halton.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
