Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire County Council is inviting interested providers to apply for inclusion in the Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme Open Select List (OSL), scheduled to commence in Summer 2025. The procurement process is in the tender stage, with interested parties having until 20th May 2025 to submit their electronic applications. This initiative falls under the services category and is aimed at delivering community, social, and personal services in Lincolnshire, particularly benefiting school-aged children receiving benefits-related Free School Meals. The programme is a re-opened opportunity, specifically targeting providers with experience in holiday or out-of-school services for secondary-aged children, children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), or children with disabilities (CWD). The procurement will follow an open procedure, with bidding and award processes aligned with the set timeline.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for organisations capable of delivering enriching activities and healthy food to eligible children in Lincolnshire. Businesses with previous experience in handling similar community-based projects, especially those focused on secondary-aged youths and special needs, are well-suited to compete for placement on the HAF OSL. Securing a position on this select list could enhance such organisations' reach and credibility, driving expansion within the local community sector. Additionally, firms that specialise in providing educational and recreational services could leverage this opportunity to reinforce their relationship with regional authorities like Lincolnshire County Council.
