The Contract will start on 1 April 2027 for an initial 5 year period until 31 March 2032.
There are two possible extensions at the Authority's discretion for up to a further 5 years on a 3 year + 2 year basis.
The total contract value is up to £135,271,039 for the whole contract term (including extensions).

Tenderers must use this as a maximum available value when submitting their bids.
Any bids exceeding this price will be rejected.
This tender seeks to deliver the best possible service to citizens while ensuring that overhead costs remain proportionate and represent value for money.
Bidders must provide a clear breakdown of their pricing.
Any bid where overhead costs exceed 30% of the total tender price will be deemed non-compliant and will be excluded from further evaluation.
The Authority reserves the right to modify the contract during its term to support potential growth from external funding opportunities to deliver outcomes against activity that support babies, children and young people such as social care reforms and the NHS 10 year plan.
Any such modification may increase the contract value by up to £3,464,000, resulting in a maximum total contract value of £138,735,039
