North Karelia Wellbeing Services County - Direct Procurement for Out-of-Home Care for Child Protection, from 30.1.2025, MJ/250014 - Rytmikodit Oy's Vivo Unit Liperi Notice Details

The North Karelia Wellbeing Services County is undertaking a direct procurement for client-specific out-of-home care services required for child protection. This procurement is being conducted with Rytmikodit Oy's Vivo unit located in Liperi, commencing on January 30, 2025, and continuing until further notice. The decision for direct procurement was made because, at the time of placement, no suitable placement meeting the client's needs could be found through the dynamic purchasing system (302658/Procurement System for Purchased Child Protection Services). Organizing a tender process or changing the service provider was deemed evidently unreasonable or particularly inappropriate from the client's perspective, in order to ensure the continuity of a significant care or client relationship. This direct procurement aims to secure essential out-of-home care services for a specific child protection case where immediate and specialized support is necessary. The service will be provided by Rytmikodit Oy, a provider with an established unit in Liperi, ensuring a stable and appropriate environment for the child. The duration of the contract is open-ended, reflecting the ongoing nature of child protection needs. The justification for direct procurement highlights the paramount importance of client well-being and the avoidance of disruption to critical therapeutic relationships.

This is a services contract in the health and medical services and social protection sectors, with a focus on Child Protection. Located in Finland, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums.
