## Description
The Authority is seeking to procure the second generation services for Community Support for men to help them address rehabilitative needs and to desist from offending, across England (other than Greater Manchester, where a procurement for similar services will be led by GM Combined Authority) and Wales.
The budget for the men's services is £854,446,832 (inc. VAT) for the full term of the contracts (optional extensions included), final values will be confirmed once the spending review and governance is completed. There is an indicative launch date of September 2025, an indicative award date of October 2026 and an anticipated indicative go live date of March 2027. The proposed contract length shall be 5 years, with the option to extend by up to 3 further years. Please note, that all key decisions including budgets, contract length and dates are yet to be approved through internal governance and therefore may change.
The men's services will provide a combined, whole-person, individualised service to help service users:
• Build supportive relationships and social networks. This might include family relationships, friends, community groups and peer communities.
• Connect to a range of community-based activities and resources that matter to them. This could include volunteering, sport or constructive leisure activities.
• Progress towards recovery from drug or alcohol use and gambling.
• Achieve and maintain sustainable outcomes in relation to housing, employment and financial management.
The Delivery Partner, who will undertake the role of lead bidder, will be responsible for the delivery of all services in the specification. It is envisaged that to deliver the whole breath of services, a supply chain may be utilised under the direction of the Delivery Partner, who will instruct, engage and collaborate with a supply chain to ensure successful delivery of the required services.
Please note, these new combined services will replace the existing separate pathway services previously procured which cover Dependency & Recovery, Personal Wellbeing, Accommodation, Finance, Benefits Debt and Education, Training and Employment.
The authority will deliver this combined service by tendering 27 contracts across two waves of tenders:
