UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Luton Council has successfully completed a procurement process titled "AT1390 Drug and Alcohol Treatment Recovery," focusing on health and social work services in the region UKH21. The procurement, initiated under the tender legal basis 2023/54, follows a direct method that is below the threshold and therefore did not involve competition. The contract was awarded to COMMUNITY LED INITIATIVES C.I.C., an SME, on 31 March 2025, marking the transition from tender to award stage. The service contract will run from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, with a total value of £181,000 GBP gross.

This tender represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in health and social work services to engage with sub-central government authorities like Luton Council. Since the procurement method prioritises direct contract allocation without the usual competitive bidding process, it particularly favours niche service providers with established relationships and proven expertise in drug and alcohol recovery treatment. SMEs in similar sectors can consider approaching similar contracts with local public authorities to expand their portfolio and foster business growth through government partnerships.
