The service is classified under CPV code 85300000, falling within the health and social work services category. The procurement covers the whole city of Stoke-on-Trent, divided into four geographical lots: North, Central, South East, and South West. The key objective is to provide support to families below statutory thresholds to reduce inequalities and prevent crises that might otherwise require statutory intervention. The tender's end date for submissions is set for 9th December 2024, while the award period starts on the same date. This contract is part of the Family Matters programme and follows the Public Contract Regulations 2015 Light Touch Regime (LTR), allowing for potential extensions up to two additional years, subject to funding. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses operating in the social work and community support sectors. It is particularly suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in family support services. Successful bidders will benefit from a multi-year contract, ensuring stable revenue and collaboration with the local council and other stakeholders within the Family Matters programme. The contract's division into four lots means multiple providers can participate, fostering competition and potentially allowing smaller organisations to secure contracts. Additionally, providing such an essential community service can enhance the business's reputation and contribute positively to local social welfare. ## Notice Stoke-on-Trent City Council wishes to commission a Family Support Co-ordinators Service The Family Support Co-ordinator service is a consensual, non-statutory service to families who have support needs below the statutory threshold.
