Tender description

Leeds City Council is looking into a potential procurement option to put in place future contractual arrangements for suitably qualified and experienced organisations to deliver two core aspects of our Children’s mediation and advocacy support services: a Children’s Rights & Advocacy service, along with our Education, Health and Care (EHC) Mediation service. Some of the children and young people requiring rights and advocacy support may not reside within the metropolitan borough of Leeds; the mediation service is only provided within the Leeds boundary. This is our first time considering tendering these two services together. To support this future procurement, we would like to gain information from the market regarding their approaches to a number of delivery aspects related to the potential procurement exercise. You are therefore invited to consider the programme requirements detailed in this document and complete the attached questionnaire to give us your feedback on the proposed approach.

About the buyer

Leeds City Council buys as a local authority, running commercial activity through Jaggaer, its source-to-contract system. Suppliers register on Jaggaer, list their capabilities and receive email alerts for new opportunities. Tender notices appear on Find a Tender under the Procurement Act 2023, and the council's live contract register is searchable on YORtender. A forward procurement pipeline on Data Mill North lists anticipated commercial activity for the next 24 months. Contract Procedure Rules set out how every purchase is carried out, whether competitively tendered or not. A voluntary Faster Payment Scheme settles invoices early for a small discount.

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 Leeds City Council's contract awards have been in construction work, health and social work and business services.
