This procurement process is classified under social work and related services with a focus on providing essential support to victims of crime and anti-social behaviour across the Merseyside region. The tender is currently in the active stage and will accept submissions until 25 January 2018. The contract is expected to commence on 1 April 2018 and will run until 31 March 2019, with a total anticipated value of £565,000, including a minimum value of £187,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in social services and community support, particularly those that can collaborate with local law enforcement and other victim services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited for this contract, as it requires the delivery of tailored support to individuals in need across a broad geographic area. Companies that can demonstrate their capability to provide high-quality, responsive services to vulnerable populations will be particularly competitive in this procurement process. ## Notice The Vulnerable Victims support service is intended to provide support to victims of crime and anti-social behaviour (ASB), responding to referrals received through the Merseyside Police Victim Referral Mechanism (VRM), and other organisations outlined in this ITT. The service will receive self-referrals, allowing victims that do not wish to engage with criminal justice services, or do not wish to be referred directly by Merseyside Police, to receive support according to their individual need. It is essential that the provider of the Vulnerable Victims support service works in co-operation with other PCC's commissioned victim services in order that victims can be referred to specialist support services that meet their individual need(s). The successful service provider will deliver a high quality provision that is capable of meeting the high demand of 'volume crime' victims, whilst retaining the capacity to ensure that all referred or self-referred victims continue to receive a consistent service that meets their need. The provider will work in partnership with Merseyside Police to ensure that the referral mechanism is operating effectively. The service will operate pan-Merseyside, and therefore tenderers should demonstrate an ability to deliver a consistent service provision across the entire Merseyside footprint. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/682a704b-5b54-4901-b810-bc27f28fb433 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Dec 2017 | | Submission deadline | 25 Jan 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2018 - 31 Mar 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £565,000 | | 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 | MERSEYSIDE POLICE - PROCUREMENT DEPARTMENT | | Locality | LIVERPOOL | | Post town | Liverpool | | Postcode | L1 8JX | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD7 Merseyside | | ITL 3 | TLD72 Liverpool | | Local authority | Liverpool | | Electoral ward | City Centre North | | Westminster constituency | Liverpool Riverside | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85300000 - Social work and related services - 85320000 - Social services ## Release History - 14 Dec 2017 at 16:30 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/682a704b-5b54-4901-b810-bc27f28fb433 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/682a704b-5b54-4901-b810-bc27f28fb433 14th December 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=22613&B=BLUELIGHT Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/32215 User / Company ## Notice URLs - http://www.merseyside.police.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
