Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire County Council, acting as the buying organisation, successfully completed a procurement process for the "Healthy Weight Behaviour Change Programme" under the award and contract stages on 1st October 2025. The procurement, conducted within the services category, involved a "limited" procurement method focusing on "Below threshold - limited competition" due to its specialised nature involving health and social work services. The contract, valued at £50,000, was signed with the Health Equalities Group, commencing on 4th August 2025 and running until 31st July 2030. This light-touch regime contract will operate primarily within the UKD4 region of the United Kingdom.

This contract offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those with expertise in weight management and behavioural change programmes. The limited competition nature of the procurement method suggests that businesses with specialised skills or experience in health equalities would be well-suited to compete in similar tenders. Additionally, large enterprises and VCSEs (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises) with proven track records in health services, like the Health Equalities Group, would likely find opportunities for expansion and collaboration in public health initiatives through contracts like this one.
