What is being bought

Published requirement description

The purpose of this notice is to notify an award under the re-opening of the Support Services framework for Young People, Children and Families framework under Round 4. Existing framework providers are not required to re-apply.

Powys County Council (the Council) has established an approved provider framework for the provision of a range of Support Services for Children, Young People and families, in and around the county of Powys.

The Council is seeking expressions of interest from providers who are suitably qualified and experienced to deliver a wide range of support services. These can range from statutory assessments to holistic therapies, and the Council is looking for a comprehensive and wide-ranging list of support services, including but not limited to the following:

  • Specific statutory assessments - Undertaking assessments (PAMs assessments (parenting); Together and Apart assessments; Psychological assessments; Sexual risk assessments
  • Therapy - All types of therapy/Counselling (a range of therapeutic support for children, young people, parents, families, Art therapy, filial therapy, Counselling, Family therapy, Play therapy).
  • Any other support provision - around Children, young people and families, such as Support Workers/Community projects/Residential workers.

The list is not exhaustive, providers may only be able to do one of the assessments listed.

The Council has let a pseudo framework agreement under Regulations 74 to 77 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 Light Touch Regime.

The Council is awarding a framework, which allows flexibility while complying with Treaty principles of transparency and equal treatment of providers.

The Council has decided to re-open the framework for 6 months to allow new providers to join and tender responses will be evaluated.
