## Summary

The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames is planning to procure an "All Age Brokerage & Support Service" through an upcoming tender process. This initiative, jointly funded by the borough's Adult Social Care and the Achieving for Children’s Children and Young People Service, falls under the category of community, social and personal services. The location for delivery spans Kingston upon Thames and Twickenham in the United Kingdom. Currently in the planning stage, the procurement process features a preliminary market engagement exercise inviting suppliers to provide input via a questionnaire due on 22nd May 2026, conducted through the London Tenders Portal. The service is categorised under a light touch regime, indicating a tailored approach to procurement, with a contract period set from 1st April 2027 to 31st March 2030, and potential for extension to 31st March 2032.

This tender presents significant opportunities for various businesses to grow, especially those small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in community services. Given the joint funding and integrated nature of the service, businesses with experience in multi-disciplinary collaborations and social care provision are well-suited to compete. With an anticipated value exceeding £949,000, the contract promises substantial engagement for a business keen on securing long-term service delivery commitments in the social care sector. Engaging in the initial market engagement phase will provide insights yet does not guarantee advantage in the formal tender. Interested parties should prepare for the formal procurement phase expected after July 2026.

## Notice

The All Age Brokerage and Support Service will be an integrated, jointly funded provision commissioned by the Royal Borough of Kingston's Adult Social Care (RBK) and Achieving for Children's Children And Young People Service (AfC).

### Planning Information

The Council would like to understand from key providers how requirements for an All Age Brokerage & Support Service might best be structured and is therefore carrying out a soft market testing exercise to engage in early informal dialogue prior to any formal procurement taking place. 
Suppliers are asked to complete and return a questionnaire by 12 noon on Friday 22nd May 2026 and via the London Tenders Portal DN813660.
Participation in this preliminary market engagement gives no advantage in any future tender exercise.
