This process is currently in the planning stage, with significant milestones including the anticipated call for expressions of interest to be published on 3 March 2017, followed by a submissions deadline on 24 March 2017. The DfE's address is situated in London, England, and the contract falls under the category of research and development services and related consultancy services (CPV code: 73000000). This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in educational research, mental health programmes, and consultancy services to collaborate in delivering effective interventions. Potential bidders may include academic institutions, research organisations, or consortia with diverse expertise in mental health and education. Companies with proven capabilities in conducting evaluations and trials, particularly within a school or educational context, are well-suited to compete for this contract and contribute to enhancing the wellbeing of children and young people through evidence-based practices. ## Notice See 'Attachments' for a full description and further information. The Department for Education (DfE) will tender a contract to deliver an evaluation programme, involving randomised control trials of school-based interventions to promote and support the mental health of children and young people. We envisage the initial contract will cover a suite of programmes and approaches. The contracted supplier will have capacity to design and deliver further trials and evaluations of school-based mental health interventions beyond this initial suite, should the department require this. Due to the range of expertise and capacity required, we envisage that the supplier may be a consortium of organisations and individuals. We intend to issue a call for expressions of interest on Friday 3 March 2017, with a deadline of 24th March. Those not registered as DfE suppliers should complete the supplier registration form before 3 March 2017 to receive a notification of the call for expressions of interest (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-education/about/research). Additional information: We expect to publish the call for expressions of interest on 3 March 2017 via the DfE research webpage (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-education/about/research) and Contracts Finder. In order to receive a notification of the call for expressions of interest, those not already registered as DfE suppliers should complete the supplier registration form before 3 March via the DfE research webpage above. We expect to issue invitations to tender on 31 March 2017. Further information about the ITT stage will be given as part of the call for expressions of interest. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/333cce3a-aab3-431c-a936-713ad2770951 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Feb 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DEPARTMENT FOR EDUCATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 3BT | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 14 Feb 2017 at 15:59 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/333cce3a-aab3-431c-a936-713ad2770951 - 9 Feb 2017 at 15:05 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/333cce3a-aab3-431c-a936-713ad2770951 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/333cce3a-aab3-431c-a936-713ad2770951 14th February 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b249ee93-f990-448b-9e86-2b7b10930e22 Description of services and further information - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-education/about/research Supplier registration - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/0d0e4213-7cf8-4369-b3dd-5c60f60519d1 Description of services and further information ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
