UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Enfield has completed a procurement process for a "Parent Advocacy Service," aiming to provide advocacy for parents involved in the child protection process. The procurement fell under the industry category of social services, with the CPV code 85320000, and was directly awarded without competition due to its below-threshold classification. The service is to be delivered within the UKI54 region, specifically within the Enfield locality. The contract, valued at £36,000 gross, was signed with the supplier, Action for Children, on 26 January 2026 and is set to commence on 1 March 2026, concluding on 31 August 2026. The procurement stage is classified as Award, and the process has now reached completion.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in social services, particularly those that can provide advocacy and support within the child protection framework. Larger organisations with experience in handling sensitive social work, akin to Action for Children, are well-suited for similar future opportunities, given the direct procurement method employed. Companies with a strong foothold in providing specialised services for public authorities in social sectors can leverage such contracts to enhance their service portfolios and expand their influence in government contracting, especially within the sub-central government landscape.
