This procurement is currently at the Tender stage, with submissions due by 12:00 on 8 March 2021. The total value of the contract is £1,474,250 and is classified under social work and related services (CPV code 85300000). The contract period begins on 29 April 2021 and extends until 29 April 2026, providing a substantial timeframe for service delivery. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the social care sector, particularly those specialising in services for children and families. Firms with expertise in short-term crisis intervention or long-term planned support would be particularly well-suited to participate. Given the contract's open procedure procurement method, there is a welcoming environment for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to engage and contribute their skills to support Torbay's vulnerable populations. ## Notice The Torbay 'Edge of Care' Service requires additional, commissioned resources to support and complement their work with children and young people, from birth until adulthood. The scope of this commissioning process is to identify skilled providers who can work with and alongside the team to meet the needs of Torbay children and young people, their families, carers and support networks. Typically Edge of Care interventions require either: Intensive input on a short term basis to respond to crises, with planning and interventions being completed within an average of 6-12 weeks (Lot 1); and/or Longer-term, planned work, with interventions being completed i.e. longer than a 6 week duration (Lot 2) Additional information: In order to provide unrestricted, full, direct and free of charge access to the Tender Documents the Authority is providing the Documents in PDF format in the 'Opportunities' Area of the ProContract e-Tendering portal, at www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk In order to access amendable versions of the Documents and to submit a response, Applicants must be registered as Suppliers on ProContract.
