Peterborough City Council, in collaboration with Cambridgeshire County Council, has reopened the tender for the Children and Young People's Home and Community Support Pseudo Dynamic Purchasing System (PDPS), titled "Children and Young Peoples Home and Community Support PDPS- Reopening Version 2". The procurement falls under the industry category of Social Work and Related Services (CPV code 85300000) and is categorized as services within the UKH region, covering Peterborough and Cambridgeshire. The procurement method is an open procedure similar to the Light Touch Regime, and the tender process concludes on 15 May 2025 at 12:00.

This tender aims to establish a framework agreement whereby suppliers can bid on multiple lots with a submission process that requires electronic submission through the specified portal link, aligning with Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in welfare and social services, particularly those serving children and young people with disabilities and complex needs. The procurement process allows for a variety of services such as generic and complex homecare, community support, and high-level family support, creating extensive avenues for business growth.

The contract values are substantial, with each lot providing services worth up to £10 million and extending until 31 January 2029. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that achieve a quality score of 60% or more and submit a competitive price under the ceiling rate have a strong chance of being admitted onto the framework, making it an attractive proposition for businesses looking to expand in these service areas.
