Overview South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority intends to undertake a competitive procurement for the provision of a South Yorkshire wide Children Who Use Harm (CWUH) programme, including intervention for child and adolescent to parent or caregiver abuse and other harmful behaviours within a family context. This notice is issued to provide advance visibility of a forthcoming procurement opportunity. It is not an invitation to tender, and suppliers should not submit tenders or proposals in response to this notice. The proposed procurement is subject to confirmation of Home Office funding, which if successful will be available until 31 March 2029 and any extra funding from 01 April 2029 will be subject to additional funding being made available for this programme. Due to the anticipated timing of the Home Office funding decision and the requirement to mobilise services by 31st December 2026, SYMCA may need to operate a compressed procurement timetable. As a result, the tender submission period may be shorter than would typically be provided for a procurement of this nature. Interested organisations are therefore encouraged to review the proposed requirement in advance and consider any arrangements necessary to support a timely response. Full details of the intended procurement timetable will be included within the tender documents. Requirement Summary The proposed service will support children and young people aged 10 to 17 who use harmful behaviours towards parents, carers, siblings or other family members. Parents, carers and siblings affected by these behaviours will also be supported. The service will operate across South Yorkshire and provide a trauma informed, whole-family intervention. It is expected to include assessment and risk management, structured support for parents and carers, direct therapeutic and behaviour change support for children and young people, relationship harm prevention, safeguarding support, multi-agency coordination and follow up. Delivery will be developmentally appropriate and individually tailored, including adaptations for developmental stage, communication needs and neurodiversity. Interventions for children under 16 will involve parents or carers throughout. For those aged 16 to 17, there will be greater emphasis on individual responsibility, prevention, transition planning and preparation for adulthood, while maintaining family involvement where safe and appropriate. Practitioners will use CWUH evidence informed approach, including motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioural techniques, emotional regulation interventions and restorative practice. Safety planning will be completed with both victims and children and young people who use harm. The programme will use a blended delivery model incorporating community venues, Family Hubs, schools, partner premises and online support where appropriate. Safeguarding, victim safety and risk management will be embedded throughout the entire delivery pathway. While recognising that children who use harmful behaviour often present with significant vulnerabilities and unmet needs, the programme maintains a clear focus on protecting victims and reducing harm. The intended outcomes include reduced harmful behaviour, improved victim and family safety, improved emotional wellbeing and regulation, increased educational engagement and attendance, reduced police demand associated with family harm, reduced future offending risk and improved outcomes for vulnerable children and young people. The detailed service requirements, anticipated activity levels, outcome measures, award criteria, service standards and contractual arrangements will be set out in the tender documents.

Birmingham Children's Trust Community Interest Company (the "Trust") is seeking to appoint one or more organisations to deliver the Early Help and District Leads service across Birmingham. The Procurement Process will be conducted in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023 and the Procurement Regulations 2024. The Services fall within the Light Touch regime and the Trust will conduct the Procurement using a Competitive Flexible Procedure. The service will work alongside Trust colleagues, Family Hub networks, statutory partners, schools and the voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise sector to provide accessible and timely support to children and families. The model will take a strengths-based approach, recognising and building on the skills, knowledge, networks and assets already present within Birmingham’s communities. It will place children, families, trust, collaboration and co-design at the centre of delivery, while maintaining clear accountability and consistent outcomes across the city. Providers will be expected to: - work effectively with grassroots organisations, established VCFSE providers, schools, Family Hubs, statutory partners and community networks; - identify, connect and develop local community assets and routes to support; - provide accessible support from community-based locations, including arrangements that enable a child or family to access the service from an appropriate location rather than being restricted solely by their home district; - demonstrate how local responsiveness will be combined with a consistent citywide offer, shared standards and effective partnership governance; and - evidence outcomes, learning and continuous improvement throughout the Contract. The contract is intended to commence on 1 April 2027 for an initial period of three years, with an option to extend for up to a further two years, subject to satisfactory performance, funding availability and the terms of the Contract. The Competitive Flexible Procedure has been designed as a two-stage process, enabling the Trust to assess different proposed delivery models at Stage 1 before progressing selected Participant(s) and delivery approach(es) to a detailed Final Tender. The Procurement will comprise: Stage 1 – Conditions of Participation and Initial Tender Participants must submit: • Appendix A – Participation Response Document: Conditions of Participation; • Appendix B – Safeguarding Questionnaire; • Appendix C – Economic and Financial Standing Assessment; and • Document 002 – Initial Tender Response Document. The Trust will first assess the applicable Conditions of Participation on a Pass/Fail basis. Participants satisfying the mandatory Conditions of Participation will then have their Initial Tender evaluated against the published Stage 1 evaluation criteria. The Initial Tender quality questions will be scored. The applicable question weightings and progression requirements are set out in Document 002. Stage 1 - Proposed delivery model and outcomes – 30% Stage 1 - Geographical coverage and local capability – 20% Stage 1 - Governance, collaboration and accountability – 15% Stage 1 - Capability, workforce and high-level mobilisation – 15% Stage 1 - Financial sustainability and affordability – 15% Stage 1 - Key risks and development required for Stage 2 – 5% Stage 1 scores will be used to determine progression to the Final Tender Stage (Stage 2) and will not contribute to the final contract award score. Stage 2 – Final Tender Participants invited to progress will be issued with the Final Tender Procurement Documents, including Document 003 – Final Tender Response Document and the Final Financial Schedule.
