Tender description

The provision of support after a suspected suicide is critical to addressing suicide risk and improving the mental wellbeing of people who have been bereaved by suicide. Surrey has a well-established Real-Time Suicide Surveillance System which is led by Surrey Police. Surrey Police then refer the bereaved into this support service pathway. The provider is required to raise awareness of suicide bereavement support through frontline health and social care professionals, as well as provide support to the bereaved. The levels of support to each bereaved member will differ, therefore the provider initially carries out an assessment before commencing support.

About the buyer

Surrey County Council buys as a local government organisation, with procurement led by its own Director of Procurement. Suppliers register on the Proactis Supplier Network, the e-sourcing portal used for major tenders and requests for quotation. Registered suppliers can express interest and submit bids for live opportunities directly through that portal. The same Proactis system manages contracts, purchase orders and invoices once a contract is awarded. Larger procurements are advertised through the Find a Tender service under the Procurement Act 2023. The Surrey-i website separately lists the council's live contracts register for suppliers to check ongoing work.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).
