Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the contract titled "78W25" was conducted by Halton Borough Council, targeting services within the health sector. Situated in Widnes, Halton Borough Council, a sub-central government public authority, initiated this process under the legal framework UKPGA 2023/54. The procurement method employed was direct, and it was categorised as "Below threshold - without competition," adhering to the "lightTouch" regime. The contract was awarded to the Halton Citizens Advice Bureau on 11 March 2025, with the contract period spanning from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026. The procurement is now in the award stage, having an active status, with the total contract valued at £36,000 GBP.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in health services, especially those skilled in supporting mental health management and household financial welfare. Given the regional focus on Widnes, businesses with a local presence or those equipped to deliver services in this area would be especially competitive. Organisations capable of offering innovative solutions to enhance mental health welfare, while also being able to manage socioeconomic aspects, stand to benefit significantly. This opportunity is particularly suitable for large-scale suppliers or VCSEs (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises) like the Halton Citizens Advice Bureau, who have already demonstrated their capacity to provide comprehensive and community-focused health services.
