## Summary

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) is seeking tenders for the "Weight Management Services for Adults and Children" initiative, aimed at evaluating government support for Tier 2 Weight Management Services during the 2021/22 financial year. This procurement falls under the industry category of professional services and is located in London, UK. The tender is currently in the active stage and initiated on 14 October 2021, with a submission deadline set for 3 November 2021. The procurement process follows an open procedure, with a total budget of £60,000 allocated, divided into two lots: one for Adult Services and another for Child Services.

This opportunity presents significant potential for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) engaged in health and social care evaluations. Companies experienced in delivering robust research methodologies, especially those focusing on weight management strategies or public health interventions, would be well-suited to compete. The evaluations aimed to review and synthesise existing monitoring frameworks, thereby offering bidders a chance to demonstrate their innovative approaches and to impact health outcomes for both adults and children effectively.

## Notice

The DHSC invites potential bidders to express their interest in undertaking high level, overarching evaluations of government support for Tier 2 Weight Management Services provided for the 2021/22 Financial Year. There are 2 LOTS: a) Adult Tier 2 Weight Management Services - this should look across the piece to identify what can be learned from this one-year investment programme (PS30.5m across local authorities in England) b) Child Tier 2 Weight Management Services - the evaluation should provide an overview of the processes and outcomes associated with PS4.3m of funding provided to 11 local authorities to test new approaches to the recruitment of families and the provision of family-oriented services to underserved groups. The requirement is for review and synthesis of existing M&E and evaluative research already embedded/planned supplemented by additional lines of enquiry to cover key evaluation questions and/or gaps in the existing evidence. Budgets of PS30K for each lot have been set to reflect the short time periods these evaluations should cover and the overarching nature of the work required.
