Summary of the contracting process

The contract for "Lot 1 - Refuge Service (including advice, information, and advocacy) to Women and Children fleeing domestic violence and abuse" has been facilitated by Wolverhampton City Council, located in the UK region of West Midlands (UKG39). The contracting process falls under the 'services' industry category, particularly focusing on social work services with accommodation, guided by the CPV code 85311000. The procurement was initiated under the Light Touch Regime as per the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, and the council's contract procedure rules. The contract is currently in the award stage, as indicated by the recent update on 10th July 2025, and it has been extended for an additional 12 months starting from 2nd July 2025 due to significant recent changes in the national landscape regarding domestic abuse.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in social services, advocacy, and support services, looking to engage in community-centric ventures and support initiatives for vulnerable populations. Organisations that have a firm understanding of domestic abuse support, and those classified as SMEs, such as The Haven Wolverhampton, the current supplier, are well-suited to compete for this contract. The extension of the contract allows time for a comprehensive review and redesign of services, which might open avenues for businesses that can offer innovative support mechanisms aligning with the changed legal and strategic landscape introduced by new domestic abuse-related legislation.
