Kent Integrated Family Domestic Abuse Service (KIFDAS)
Authority: Kent County Council (Local council)
What is being bought5 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionThe overarching objective of this commission is to bring together all related domestic abuse contracts which have previously been purchased in a fragmented way due to how funding has been announced and received over the existing contract term. It will commission services under a single, unified contractual arrangement, ensuring a seamless and coordinated pathway of support for victims and survivors of domestic abuse in Kent whilst recognising the need to consider lotting and acknowledging and reducing barriers for SMEs to access the opportunity in so far that it does not provide diminished value. By integrating services in this way, the new commissioning approach aims to eliminate fragmentation, simplify access to crucial resources, and provide a consistent, person-centred experience for individuals and families at every stage of their journey.
The full requirement can be found within associated tender documents.

•Increased identification and early intervention: Staff across statutory, voluntary, and community sectors will be better equipped to recognise signs of domestic abuse, enabling earlier support and reducing escalation of harm.
•Enhanced survivor experience: Survivors benefit from a more consistent, supportive response across all services, as professionals demonstrate improved understanding, sensitivity, and effectiveness in their interactions.
•Empowered communities: Through targeted awareness campaigns and educational resources, members of the public are better able to identify domestic abuse, challenge harmful behaviours, and seek help or signpost others to support.
•Improved multi-agency collaboration: Training and education facilitate shared language, values, and protocols, resulting in better coordination between agencies and more holistic care for those affected by domestic abuse.

How the contest usually goes
Winner shares use published awards; bid and price charts use contested lots.
i
How often small and medium firms win.
Share of awards where the winner’s size is known.
The counts under this question show how many awards have a known supplier size.
Small firms have won here. Neither number says whether you qualify; it describes who has been winning.
i
How often local firms win similar work.
Winners with a registered address in the delivery region, out of awards with a known address.
Here, local means registered in South East England.
A local branch does not count if the registered address is elsewhere.
Most of this buyer’s recorded winners are registered in South East England.
i
How long buyers here take to decide after bids close.
Middle value in days from the deadline to the first award notice, on competitions that published both dates.
Only decided tenders count, so slow ones still waiting are not in.
Half of these awards were announced within 66 days of the bid deadline.
i
How often work is awarded with no recorded rival.
Direct awards and tenders where every published lot count shows one bid.
Both shares are minimums: some awards have no bid count.
Thin markets produce this too; it is not proof of a tailored specification.
Missing bid counts may hide more single-bid awards. This share is a minimum.
How many bids did past lots attract?
i
How many bids past lots received.
Each colour is a bid-count range. Only competed lots with a published count are included.

About this data
- Source. Official UK public procurement notices (Find a Tender), reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0. New notices arrive through the day; the figures are rebuilt nightly.
- Two views, kept apart. The authority’s own track record and the wider market for the same kind of work sit side by side and are never mixed. Where the local picture is too thin, a figure widens to a broader market and says which one it used.
- Forecasts are labelled. The price forecast and its range, possible competitors and the earlier-work matches are our estimates from past awards: not published facts, not win chances and not price advice. Official notices do not say who is bidding.
- Every figure shows what it rests on. Not every notice publishes a bid count, a value or a delivery region, so each figure carries the number of records behind it, and one built on few records is marked as such. The on a figure explains it; the counting rules are in the methodology. Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
