This procurement falls under the social work and health services industry categories. The tender is at the planning stage with a submission deadline set for 26 July 2021. The contract, valued at £301,500 for an initial two-year term, may potentially extend for an additional 24 months, contingent on funding eligibility. The service is intended to be delivered in the region of England, specifically aimed at addressing the increasing rates of self-harm within the community. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the health and social care sector, especially those specialising in mental health support services. Companies that can demonstrate expertise in early intervention and prevention practices are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as there is a noted suitability for their participation in this procurement process. This initiative not only aims to increase service delivery within the community but also ensures the participation of innovative and responsive service providers who can address a pressing public health concern. ## Notice Self-harm is a considerable and increasing public health concern both locally and nationally. Whilst self-harm rates are increasing, presentation to clinical service has not kept pace. The prevalence of self-harm in the community is generally increasing year on year. It is well-known that non-fatal self-harm is the strongest risk factor for subsequent suicide attempt - this risk factor significantly increases further when an individual presents at clinical services, particularly adolescents. Leicestershire County Council, alongside Leicester City Council and Rutland County Council, are looking to jointly procure the service of "Community Self-Harm Intervention", which will provide capacity and expertise at a community level to sensitively support individuals who self-harm. The service will do this via two streams: * Stream 1; Inform and Prevent * Stream 2; Early Intervention (further information on both streams can be found in the specification) Amongst other aims, this service should look to increase the quality, availability and access to information and self-help resources for prevention. The contract value assigned to this service is PS301,500 for the initial two-year contract term. This contract may potentially be extended beyond the initial 2-year period for period/s of up to a maximum of 24 months. However, this is subject to funding arrangements at the time and thus, this extension cannot be guaranteed at the moment. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0304efb3-4122-4245-9aa2-79a25e52dcda | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Jun 2021 | | Submission deadline | 26 Jul 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 15 Aug 2021 - 15 Aug 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £603,000 | | 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 | LEICESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | LEICESTER | | Post town | Leicester | | Postcode | LE3 8RA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF22 Leicestershire CC and Rutland | | Local authority | Blaby | | Electoral ward | Glenfield Faire | | Westminster constituency | Mid Leicestershire | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services - 85300000 - Social work and related services ## Release History - 28 Jun 2021 at 14:36 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0304efb3-4122-4245-9aa2-79a25e52dcda - 28 Jun 2021 at 14:14 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5847b5ee-fb7a-463c-b594-2b4ab68bba2e - 28 Jun 2021 at 13:43 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8836ae83-624c-48f6-83f1-f9d56be6c892 - 28 Jun 2021 at 13:38 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e3b48936-0783-4c0a-add6-a11f3f2421f8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0304efb3-4122-4245-9aa2-79a25e52dcda 28th June 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5847b5ee-fb7a-463c-b594-2b4ab68bba2e 28th June 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8836ae83-624c-48f6-83f1-f9d56be6c892 28th June 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e3b48936-0783-4c0a-add6-a11f3f2421f8 28th June 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=cdd3c321-11d8-eb11-810c-005056b64545&fromRfxSummary=True&rfxId=861eca77-1ad8-eb11-810c-005056b64545 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
