In plain English

Coventry City Council is looking for a provider to deliver drug and alcohol prevention, treatment and support services specifically for young people. This is a statutory public health service that includes helping young people with substance use issues and supporting families affected by drug or alcohol use.

What the buyer wants

• Deliver drug and alcohol prevention programmes and education for young people • Provide treatment and recovery support services for young people with substance use problems • Safeguard children affected by their own substance use or parental substance use • Work within the local authority's public health framework and statutory requirements

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: This contract is likely to disqualify most small businesses because it requires specialist clinical expertise in substance misuse treatment for young people, significant safeguarding infrastructure, the ability to manage complex cases, and integration with statutory health and social care systems. Most sole traders and small service providers will lack the clinical staffing, accreditations and scale needed.
