## Description
As part of Justice Devolution arrangements between Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) and Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS), it has been agreed that HMPPS will devolve their national ‘Dynamic Commissioning Framework’ responsibilities for commissioning of services through to GMCA.
The devolved approach for Greater Manchester is entitled ‘Greater Manchester Integrated Rehabilitative Services’ (GMIRS). This approach is designed to offer a less structured and more locally tailored interventions which will draw on the experience, innovation, and skill within the private and voluntary, community and social enterprise sectors (VCSE), to provide effective rehabilitation and resettlement services that address criminogenic needs unmet by Greater Manchester Probation Service through their programmes, Accredited Programmes, Unpaid Work and Structured Interventions.
For Greater Manchester the Probation Service relationship will solely be with the Probation Service - Greater Manchester Region. There are also a number of minimum requirements and other specific activity required by HMPPS which form part of this specification.
This ITT requires the provider to deliver three specific elements.
•	Infrastructure and coordination – the provider will hold the contract and be the single point of contact for all performance and data requirements with the commissioners. They will provide the reporting coordination and infrastructure to ensure a minimum standard of delivery is available for all PoP across Greater Manchester and minimum standards are adhered to. They ability and capacity to sub-contract with local and or specialist providers.
•	Integration and service development - the provider will have an integration function that enables the Well-being and other GMIRS services to maximise the understanding of the impact of interventions and identify gaps, communicate learning across internal and external partners and seek to maximise the income the GMIRS can access via fund raising and the development of any potential commercial avenues including social corporate responsibility and additional grants and contracts available to the VCSE sector.
•	Service delivery – deliver or commission partners to deliver the core Well-being Support Service in each local authority area of Greater Manchester and deliver in-custody support for people in prison.   The Provider may choose to do this by subcontracting with existing local providers to ensure there is a minimum of one delivery hub in each locality. The provider will also subcontract any additional specialist support that may be required at a GM scale for example; Finance, Benefit and Debt, Family Support, or Trauma Informed Support.
