Carer Support - consultation work has been carried out by Sheffield DAAT with a range of stakeholders, a brief specification of new service provision will be published shortly. 

All enquiries about commissioning in Sheffield are handled through the Sheffield Primary Care Trust Procurement Website.

In a change to the originally published timetable, Sheffield DAAT is now planning to go to open competitive tender for "DIP & DRR" as one contract in Round 3 in Autumn 2011 through the Local Authority procurement team.

Commissioners decide what services are required to best meet the demands of the City based on comprehensive Needs Assessments based on local and national data, and in line with National Strategies.  If you would like to see what national strategies govern the provision of drug and alcohol treatment services in England please see our Strategic Documents section and the Home Office website.
