## Summary

Devon County Council is currently in the planning stage of the procurement process for the initiative titled "CP1731-19 - Devon Youth Services," which aims to secure providers for youth services in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The total contract value is estimated at £8.7 million. Key activities include an engagement event scheduled for 15th May to discuss the council's priorities and procurement process, with a deadline for engagement set at 16th May 2019.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for organisations that specialise in health and social work services, particularly those focusing on youth engagement. Businesses that can provide open access youth services, targeted support for youths with additional needs, and community group assistance will be well-positioned to compete. Furthermore, voluntary and community organisations are encouraged to consider participating, as the facilitated market warming event will allow them to gather invaluable insights into the council's expectations and operational context.

## Notice

The commissioners will require a provider that can demonstrate an ability to offer: * Open access (universal) youth services * Targeted youth work with and outreach to young people with additional needs * Advice, guidance and support to voluntary and community groups * Short-term alternative provision to young people outside of mainstream education There are 8 youth service hubs currently and our expectation is that the successful bidder would continue to use these facilities.
