## Summary

The East Riding of Yorkshire Council is inviting tenders for the "East Riding Advice Service", aimed at delivering a high-quality social welfare legal advice service to support vulnerable populations and reduce inequalities. The procurement method is an open procedure, currently in the award stage. This contract, valued at £1,204,000 and effective from 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2020, targets service delivery in Yorkshire and the Humber. The tender period closed on 24 January 2018.

This opportunity is particularly well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialised in legal and social welfare services. Businesses with innovative service delivery models that can embrace digital solutions will have an advantage in addressing the growing demand for social welfare services in the East Riding of Yorkshire, particularly given the projected increase in the local population and the ageing demographic by 2039.

## Notice

The Council wishes to commission a high-quality social welfare legal advice service that supports the Council's priorities of 'Supporting Vulnerable People, Reducing Inequalities' and Promoting Health Wellbeing and Independence'. A crucial outcome of this service will be to build on current provision whilst developing the capacity to support the council in transforming the delivery of advice through digital solutions in the future. The East Riding of Yorkshire is located in the north of England on the East coast and surrounds the city of Hull on the north bank of the Humber, covering an area of approximately 930 square miles. East Riding of Yorkshire Council is facing increased demand on all its services, with population projected to increase to 361,933 by 2039. The East Riding also has a very high proportion of people (25%) of pensionable age and this is projected to increase to 33% by 2039. Demand for services is increasing as welfare reforms continue apace; therefore, to ensure that services can meet demand and be sustainable; we need new models of provision. To address these challenges, the Council is committed to embracing innovative ways of working to deliver the best services for our residents. Commissioning and delivery of a high quality, consistent social welfare legal advice service is crucial to this aim. An outcomes based approach will be used to support innovation and will be central to identifying and delivering the solutions that are required in times of significant change.
