Tender description
This is a notice of award for Family Group Decision Making Best Practice Guides. The services relate to the Department's aim to procure the development of a package of best practice guidance for local authorities (LAs) to implement their new legal duty to offer family group decision making (FGDM) to all parents (or those with parental responsibility) of children whose cases have reached the pre-proceedings stage, unless the offer is not in the child's best interest. Although this is being primarily produced to offer guidance to support LAs in relation to the new duty at the time it comes into force, it will also offer general best practice guidance on FGDM that is applicable to meetings that happen at other points in the children's social care system (e.g. at earlier points in the system, such as during family help, or later, such as reunification).

About the buyer
The Department for Education is a ministerial department responsible for children's services and education policy in England, procuring both for itself and its executive agencies. Requirements are advertised on the Find a Tender service, published through the department's Jaggaer etendering system. Suppliers awarded a contract must register on the Central Digital Platform. Framework purchases follow the matching Crown Commercial Service terms. Many contracts are let on standard government terms, such as Cabinet Office short-form or model services agreements. Schools and academy trusts buy separately, using framework options the department reviews and approves in advance.
Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.
Over the past 5 years, most of the Department for Education's contract awards have been in business services, construction work and education and training.
