Subject to relevant approvals, the Council is seeking a single provider with the capability and capacity to deliver the Supply and Distribution of Baby Packs on its behalf. This scheme involves the procurement of high‑quality items, the assembly of these items into a standardised baby pack, and the subsequent delivery of the completed packs to new mothers in Rotherham who have indicated to their midwife that they wish to receive one. The appointed supplier will be required to manage and deliver up to 2,800 baby packs per year, with deliveries made directly to the mother's home address. This figure is based on birth trends over the past five years; however, annual volumes may fluctuate depending on the number of completed midwife registrations received through the scheme.
