Although there are many organisations, operating across the conurbation, with a focus on modern slavery, as well as organisations that are likely to have contact with victims, there is currently no overarching mechanism that brings these agencies together under a Greater Manchester remit. It is envisaged that a Modern Slavery Network for Greater Manchester will provide an opportunity to develop a consistent and coordinated approach to support victims, as well as reducing the opportunities for this criminality to flourish. This represents a new opportunity to develop an approach that is considered to be national good practice. It is a high profile area of business that will require leadership and management by an organisation that has experience of effective partnership working in a complex multi-agency environment. Responses to the tender should include creative and innovative proposals for the development of maintenance of the Modern Slavery network. Additional information: The 'Modern Slavery Network for Greater Manchester' project is grant funded and an initial budget of £70,000 is available. This initial budget must be spent by 31 March 2017. During the final 6 months of the initial term, the service will be reviewed to inform a decision on any future requirement. Should additional funding become available, the Police and Crime Commissioner for Greater Manchester reserves the right to extend the contract (either incrementally or as a single extension) up to an ultimate end date of 28 October 2019. Further information about the requirement is available on the Bluelight e-tendering portal at [bluelight.gov.uk](https://www.bluelight.gov.uk/). Any organisation wishing to express an interest in the contract should visit the Bluelight portal in order to download the Invitation to Tender.
