## Summary

Worcestershire County Council is engaging in a preliminary market engagement (PME) process to prepare for the procurement of the "Family Hubs 2027" project, a service that will provide localised support and early intervention for families within Worcestershire. This initiative is part of a planned procurement process focusing on welfare and miscellaneous health services for children, young people, and broader community-focused services in the UKG12 region. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, and interested parties can submit feedback until 12th June 2026. The formal tender process will commence with future notices expected by 10th August 2026, with the contract period planned from 1st April 2027 to 31st March 2029.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses in the welfare, health services, and community service sectors, specifically those capable of delivering comprehensive support services for families. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to bid for this contract due to its focus on locality-based provision and the enhancement of community networks. Engaging in this procurement opportunity can enable growth through collaboration with Worcestershire County Council and contribute to the county's drive for effective community service delivery infrastructure.
