Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire County Council, jointly funded with the Lincolnshire Integrated Care Board, procured an Integrated Lifestyle Support Service known as One You Lincolnshire. The service provides preventative health and social work support intended to reduce ill-health and health inequalities across Lincolnshire. Its scope covers six risk factors: smoking, physical inactivity, unhealthy weight, alcohol, falls prevention, and child and family weight management. The work is delivered across Lincolnshire. It is a short-term interim service supporting the transition to future smoking cessation and falls prevention services. The selected provider is Thrive Tribe Ltd, an SME based in London, which has delivered the service as the incumbent provider.

The procurement has reached the award stage. Lincolnshire County Council selected Thrive Tribe Ltd through Provider Selection Regime Direct Award C, without a prior call for competition, under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The latest contract was signed on 17 September 2026 for £1,783,272, covering 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. An earlier related contract with Thrive Tribe Ltd was awarded on 1 September 2025, signed on 17 September 2025, valued at £3,172,100 and expiring on 1 October 2026. Assessment considered quality and innovation, value, integration and sustainability, access and health inequalities, choice, and social value. The published outcome records one bid, from an SME.

This procurement indicates established demand for integrated, outcomes-based public health services in Lincolnshire, combining behaviour change, prevention and health inequality reduction rather than a single clinical intervention. A credible competitor would need capability across smoking cessation, physical activity, weight management, alcohol support, falls prevention, and child and family services, with the capacity to coordinate delivery across a county-wide population. Evidence of consistent performance against contractual requirements and key performance indicators would be important, alongside measurable public health outcomes. The assessment also placed weight on service quality, innovation, value, collaboration with health and care partners, sustainability, access, choice and social value. Relevant experience managing a complex, integrated lifestyle service would therefore be central to competing for a future requirement.
