The procurement exercise is running alongside a funding application, with submission deadlines on 17th February and decision expected by 31st March 2023. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender period ends on 13th March 2023, with bids to be opened electronically via the Bluelight e-tendering system on the same day. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the health and social work services sector to work with the PCC in Cheshire. Businesses with experience in delivering successful outcomes in domestic abuse prevention, training program services, social work, and community health services would be well-suited to compete. The contract period starts on 4th April 2023 and includes the possibility of four 12-month extension periods. The procurement emphasises quality evaluation criteria, focusing on the ability to deliver, delivery team, partnership engagement, value for money, and legacy or social value. ## Notice The Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire (PCC) has a requirement for a specialist provider to work with the PCC and the Drive Partnership to deliver a 'Drive' domestic abuse perpetrator programme for a three-year period (2 year initial term with the third years funding subject to successful delivery and achieving milestones) across Cheshire; seeking to reduce offending in a high risk, high harm cohort of perpetrators. The PCC has submitted a grant application to the Home Office Domestic Abuse Perpetrators fund to secure funds to deliver this programme. In the event we are not successful in our grant application, a contract will not be awarded as a result of this procurement process. The procurement exercise is being run in parallel to the funding application due to tight delivery timescales. Proposed budget for this initial programme (3-year term) is PS2.5m. Total possible contract length - 2 year initial term with 4 x 12 month extension periods ### Lot Information Lot 1 This Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire (PCC) has a requirement to identify a specialist provider to work with themselves and the Drive Partnership to deliver a 'Drive' domestic abuse perpetrator programme for a three-year period (2 year initial term with the third years funding subject to successful delivery and achieving milestones) across Cheshire; seeking to reduce offending in a high risk, high harm cohort of perpetrators. The PCC has submitted a grant application to the Home Office Domestic Abuse Perpetrators fund to secure funds to deliver this programme in Cheshire. The submission deadline for the PCC's application is 17th February 2023. It is expected that a decision on the application will be made by 31st March 2023. In the event we are not successful in our grant application for funding, a contract will not be awarded as a result of this procurement process. The procurement exercise is being run in parallel to the funding application because delivery timescales are tight. The PCC is hoping to attract a nationally recognised provider working to prevent Violence Against Women and Girls. Due to the sensitive nature of this work, the inherent risks working with perpetrators of domestic abuse and the requirement to have appropriately trained and skilled staff available in short timescales, we expect the successful bidder will have some existing links to the Cheshire and North West area. We would also expect they have extensive experience in this area; around safeguarding requirements and will have a proven track record in delivering successful outcomes. The proposed budget for this initial programme (3-year term) is PS2.5m. It is expected that the PCC will be able to put a further grant application into the Home Office for a continuation of the funding after the initial 3 years. Therefore, a further 3 x 12-month extension periods are available within the total term.
