Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Lewisham has concluded a procurement process for a contract titled "New Arrivals Support to provide community building," aiming to support Ukrainian nationals under 18s and over 55s through the Ukraine Permission Extension (UPE) programme. This initiative spans from October 2025 to September 2026 with a total contract value of £30,000. The process, which has reached the award stage, utilised a direct procurement method below the competition threshold. The awarded contract, active as of 18 December 2025, falls under the services category focusing on social work and related services (CPV: 85300000), with the primary delivery location being UKI44, United Kingdom. The procurement documents were published by the Cabinet Office on behalf of Lewisham, with the official award notice available through the Find a Tender Service.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses involved in social services, especially those experienced in supporting integration and community building for refugees and newcomers. Organisations with expertise in delivering targeted assistance to children and the elderly, particularly within immigrant communities, could find this project aligns well with their service offerings. While the procurement method for this particular contract was direct, smaller enterprises (SMEs) and those focusing on social welfare services may benefit from similar future opportunities, reflecting the ongoing demand for tailored community support services in public procurement.
