## Summary

The Worcestershire County Council has recently concluded the procurement process for the 'Worcestershire Domestic Abuse Services 2022', designated under the health and social work services industry category. The procurement was initiated as an open tender procedure, with key components that included three distinct service lots focusing on domestic abuse support. Although the official "tender period" concluded on 1 November 2021, the contract awards were signed on 31 December 2021, with ongoing active contracts valued cumulatively at £5,255,955. The principal contracting authority, Worcestershire County Council, is located at Spetchley Road, Worcester, UK, and oversees the implementation of this vital support initiative aimed at addressing domestic abuse in the region.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social services, particularly those that supply targeted support for domestic abuse victims and their families. Companies capable of providing comprehensive support services, such as outreach and accommodation support, as well as advisory roles for high-risk individuals, will be well positioned to compete for future contracts stemming from this initiative. Given the council's emphasis on value for money and future-proofing arrangements, providers that can demonstrate effective outcomes and innovative solutions in domestic abuse support will likely appeal to the contracting authority.

Domestic Abuse Support Service

The Domestic Abuse Support Service (DASS) is a requirement to enable Worcestershire County Council (WCC) to meet its statutory duty as set out in the Domestic Abuse Act 2021 (legislation.gov.uk) published in April this year. This includes the provision of specialist domestic abuse support to adults and children living in emergency and safe house accommodation in addition to outreach services.

West Mercia Independent Domestic Violence Advisor (IDVA) service

This Service is for a West Mercia Independent Domestic Violence Advisor (IDVA) service for high risk Victims/Survivors of domestic violence and abuse aged 16 years and over. (Although the Service will not work directly with children under the age of 16, it will make referrals to safeguard children at risk of harm).

DRIVE Project

The Drive Project focuses on priority high-risk or serial perpetrators, both male and female, aged 16 and over, as this group carries the greatest risk of serious harm and engage poorly in available services. By addressing perpetrators' behaviour Drive targets the root cause of domestic abuse and improves outcomes for victims and children. The key objectives are to: * Reduce the number of serial perpetrators of domestic abuse * Reduce the number of repeat and new victims * Reduce the harm caused to victims and children
