The contract is valued at £970,000 GBP and falls under the Health and social work services category. The procurement method is an open procedure, with a tender period ending on 21st April 2023. The contract is expected to end on 30th September 2025. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in social work services to collaborate with public and third-sector organisations in tackling serious violence. The successful bidder will coordinate with key partners like Greater Manchester Police, Manchester City Council, and NHS to implement a mentoring approach aimed at reducing serious violent offending. Businesses with experience in youth justice, probation, and community support services would be well-suited to compete for this contract. ## Notice The programme will take a child/person centred approach to tackling serious violence, working with a range of local delivery partners to reduce group-based serious violent offending by working with those individuals who are most active, predominantly aged 14-25. This includes Greater Manchester Police and the wider Criminal Justice as key delivery partners, enabling implementation of an approach which recognises support and enforcement at the appropriate time as fundamental to implementing sustainable changes in levels of serious violent offending. The successful bidder will coordinate a broad collaboration including; GMP, Manchester City Council, Youth Justice, Probation, NHS, Complex Safeguarding and Local Community experts (mentors). They will provide the support package, grounded in a mentoring approach and based on developing trusted relationships that facilitate aspiration, to provide long-term reductions in serious violence that is rooted in group-based dynamics.
