Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Rural Youthwork" project, managed by Worcestershire County Council, involves delivering youth services in Kempsey and Malvern Hills. This contract, valued at £34,960 (gross value £41,952), was awarded to Worcestershire YMCA as the supplier. As of 20th August 2025, the contract has been signed and will be actively executed from 1st September 2025 until 31st August 2028, with a possible extension for another year. Classified under the services category, this direct procurement was conducted below the threshold and thus did not require a competitive process. It focuses on assistance within the community through services provided by youth associations, with all operations centred in the UKG12 region, United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small to medium enterprises (SMEs), particularly those engaged in service delivery within the youth sector. Businesses with expertise in community-focused projects, social services, and rural youth engagement are ideally suited to participate in similar tenders or to develop partnerships with organisations like Worcestershire YMCA. Emphasising below-threshold, non-competitive procurement methods, it highlights potential openings for smaller enterprises to secure government projects without navigating extensive competition, helping them to scale operations and enhance their public sector portfolio.
