The Greater Manchester Combined Authority Regional Care Cooperative (RCC) is developing a new, region wide approach to supported accommodation for children transitioning out of care aged 16 - 17 and care experienced young people. The RCC has been established to strengthen sufficiency, improve outcomes and develop a more ethical and purpose driven care market across the region. Ensuring young people leaving care have safe and supported environments as they prepare for adulthood. The supported accommodation market is comprised of a range of providers and commissioning arrangements, and service delivery approaches vary across localities. Engagement with young people and sector stakeholders, alongside data analysis and market insight, indicates that experiences of support and placement stability can be inconsistent and that young people often face challenges when moving into adulthood. The RCC has identified a benefit in a regionally coordinated approach that enables innovation in the sector to design a new supported accommodation and settling in model. This procurement forms part of the RCC's wider programme of work to support market sustainability and capacity, strengthen regional planning, and increase the availability of provision that meets current needs and outcomes for young people. The RCC intends to establish a multi provider open framework through a Competitive Flexible Procedure. The approach to commissioning and procurement designed thus far aims to ensure accessibility for all eligible providers. The framework comprises five complementary lots covering accommodation-based support, community-based move-on support, emotional health and wellbeing, life skills and opportunities, and complex safeguarding. Providers may submit a bid for one lot only and should therefore consider carefully which lot best aligns with their expertise, workforce, partnerships, delivery model and ability to meet the full requirements of that offer. Where more than one lot supports a young person, providers must work together through the Collaboration Agreement to deliver one coordinated pathway rather than separate services. 1) Lot 1: Building-Based Support £12.1 million Core 24-hour Building-Based Supported Accommodation Transitional Support and Step-Down Planning Provider Collaboration and Coordination 2) Lot 2: Moving On Support £1.975 million Floating Community-Based Support Long Term Interdependence - Sustaining Tenancies, Community Integration, Lasting Connections 3) Lot 3: Emotional Health and Wellbeing £1.975 million Emotional Support and Wellbeing Mental Health Support Relationship Support 4) Lot 4: Life Skills and Opportunities £1.975 million Financial and Digital Literacy Tenancy Readiness and Housing Meaningful Use of Time Rights, Entitlements and Navigation Employment and Training Employer and Provider Partnerships 5) Lot 5: Complex Safeguarding £1.975 million Re-offending/ Offending Child Criminal Exploitation (CCE) Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) The Tender pack can be found on The Chest procurement portal

Purpose of this engagement: Cefas is undertaking market engagement to inform a future procurement for delivery of statutory microbiological monitoring services on behalf of Food Standards Scotland (FSS). This notice is not a call for competition or a commitment to procure. Its purpose is to help potential suppliers understand the anticipated requirement, test the deliverability of the proposed service model and provide an opportunity to raise technical, logistical, commercial and implementation questions before any formal procurement is launched. Background: FSS operates an official control programme to monitor faecal contamination in live bivalve molluscs and support the classification of shellfish harvesting areas, for which Cefas coordinates aspects of programme delivery. The anticipated contract will principally cover existing classified production areas and new areas seeking classification in Shetland and Orkney. Current planning assumptions indicate approximately 52 shellfish samples per month, or 624 per year, but volumes and locations may change in response to regulatory requirements, classification decisions, incidents, seasonal activity or changes in the monitoring plan. The geographical scope of the work may be expanded to other Scottish areas. Market feedback sought: Cefas will hold two online market-engagement sessions for potential applicants. During each session, Cefas will provide an overview of the service, including the logistics, sample-management, analytical and reporting requirements, and will respond to comments and questions raised by suppliers. The sessions are intended to help suppliers understand the proposed requirement and identify any practical issues, risks or points requiring clarification before a formal procurement is launched. The sessions will also provide Cefas with an opportunity to review any potential changes required to the scope of the work or intended contractual details. The sessions will take place on 15/10/26 at 15:00 and 19/10/26 at 10:00 via MS Teams. Interested organisations should register on Eventbrite at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/cefas-market-engagement-statutory-shellfish-ecoli-monitoring-service-tickets-2002621752571 no later than 2 days prior to the events. Organisations may submit questions in advance to [email protected] Participation in either session will not confer any advantage in a subsequent procurement, and non-participation will not prevent an organisation from taking part in any future competition. A summary of the questions and responses will be made available as part of the procurement process. Details of service required: The requirement is for an integrated end-to-end service including laboratory analysis, as well as coordinating the logistics needed to move samples from remote island locations to its laboratory in a condition and timeframe suitable for official control testing. Sample collection itself will be undertaken under separate arrangements, but the supplier must work closely with sampling contractors and any FSS-approved industry collectors. • Logistics and sample management: establish reliable delivery arrangements from Shetland and Orkney; pay transport costs; provide and replenish approved packing and transport equipment; coordinate with sample collectors; monitor weekly schedules; support correct packaging and documentation; receive samples Monday to Friday, including early or late deliveries where necessary; and maintain contingency arrangements for disruption.
