Description
Leicester City Council invites Tenders from suitably qualified and experienced organisations for the provision of an Individual Placement and Support in Community Drug and Alcohol Treatment programme.
Leicester City Council has been chosen as one of the areas for the roll out of Individual Placement Support (IPS) for substance misuse. Funding has been allocated to Leicester by central government for the 2022-25 period based on the costs of employing 2 employment advisors and 1 senior employment advisor.
IPS is a well-evidenced approach, primarily used to-date in Mental Health services, that should be available for anyone of working age in structured drug/alcohol treatment. Services should be tailored to individual needs, co-located within substance misuse services and providing pre-employment and in-work support.
Two key aspects of the approach are, firstly, that the employment advisors should be working alongside substance misuse staff as part of and an equal member of the multi-disciplinary team, establishing employment as a key aim of recovery. Secondly IPS is seen as a 'work first' intervention helping people into jobs that they want to do regardless of their stage on the recovery journey. The proposed Contract shall be held by Leicester City Council and will be for an initial period of 2 years to commence on 1st February 2023 to 31st March 2025, with an option to extend, subject to continued funding and satisfactory performance outcomes for a further 3 years to 31st March 2028, taking the contract term to a maximum of 5 years.
The proposed service is based on current and known funding allocations. These could alter through the life of the contract in light of changes in future local and central government funding. The earmarked funding for 2023 to 2025 is £335,010. If funding were to be sustained beyond this period the contract value could be £807,306.
The Authority will hold an online Tender Information Session conducted via Microsoft Teams on 16th September 2022 at 11.00 am
