Tender description

Medway Council's Youth Services team wish to continue an ongoing brief intervention counselling project, to provide early intervention counselling to members of our youth community. These counselling sessions will be based in our youth clubs and community facilities. The counsellor(s) will work with young people and the parents of carers who have been referred to the service via social workers, schools, Family Solutions and community partners. One aim of this service is to offer support to young people who do not meet the CAMHS threshold for tier 3 support, enabling earlier support and intervention for young people with lower level needs to prevent escalation.

About the buyer

Medway Council governs the Medway towns in Kent, and buys as a local authority with its own central procurement team. All contracting opportunities are advertised on the Kent Business Portal, where suppliers can search live tenders and set up email alerts. Suppliers must also register on the Central Digital Platform, a requirement since the Procurement Act 2023 took effect. Dynamic purchasing systems cover recurring needs such as SEND transport, supported living and agency staff recruitment. Premarket engagement with suppliers shapes tender requirements before contracts go live. The council also publishes its full contracts register on the same portal.

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

Over the past 5 years, most of Medway Council's contract awards have been in construction work, architectural and engineering services and health and social work.
