Description

North Northamptonshire Council (hereafter referred to as the "Council") wishes to invite Tender Responses for the Provision of 0-19 (Children and Young People) Services in North Northamptonshire.

In order to deliver services to support children and young people in North Northamptonshire using an evidence-based approach and health need assessment, the 0 - 19 service has been split into two lots: 0-11 and 11-19.

Lot 1: 0-11 Service, fully integrated with Family Hubs:

Lot 1 provides a fully integrated service for families with children aged 0-11, linked to Family Hubs. It includes the Healthy Child Programme, which focuses on early childhood health through regular reviews, immunizations, and health education. There is targeted support for vulnerable parents, expanded access to services, and initiatives like the Infant Feeding Service to promote breastfeeding. The Parent and Infant Mental Health Programme supports emotional wellbeing, while the National Child Weight Management Programme monitors and addresses childhood obesity. All programs aim to reduce health inequalities and improve outcomes for families.

Contract Duration - 60 months with the preferred Potential Supplier, with an option to extend for 48 months, making 108 months in total.

Contract Value - The Contract has a maximum total budget of £44,473,320 for Lot One (exclusive of VAT) for the delivery of the requirement as set out in the Specification.

Lot 2: 11+-19 Service, with a focus on local priorities:

The Service, led by Specialist Community Public Health Nurses (School Nurses), aims to support the health and wellbeing of school-aged children through a comprehensive, no wrong door approach. The service includes health education, immunizations, and safeguarding, along with specialized support in key areas such as mental health and emotional wellbeing, promoting healthy relationships, encouraging healthier lifestyle choices, and reducing risk-taking behaviours. Additionally, the service provides guidance to help young people transition smoothly into adulthood and become work-ready.

Contract Duration - 36 months with the preferred Potential Supplier, with an option to extend for 48 months, making 84 months in total.

Contract Value - The Contract has a maximum total budget of £7,000,000 for Lot Two (exclusive of VAT) for the delivery of the requirement as set out in the Specification.

The contract for this project will be awarded via the Competitive Process, subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award.
