Summary of the contracting process

The Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime in London initiated the MOPAC Sexual Violence Legal Advice Pilot as part of the Mayor of London's strategy to combat violence against women and girls. The contracting process has reached the award stage, with the Women and Girls Network selected as the supplier to provide health and social work services under this initiative. This direct procurement was conducted below the threshold, without competition, in alignment with the 'light touch' procurement regime. The project focuses on delivering free, independent legal advice for sexual violence survivors, addressing privacy issues related to mobile phones and devices. The contract commenced on 1 July 2025 and will run through to 31 March 2026, with a possible extension until June 2026. The gross value of the contract is £289,708.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for growth in the health and social services sector, especially for organisations like the Women and Girls Network, which align with the initiative's focus on supporting survivors of sexual violence. Businesses specialising in legal advice, data privacy, and victim support services are particularly well-suited to engage in similar future tenders. Being part of a high-profile project under the Mayor of London’s strategy could enhance visibility and credibility in the sector, providing additional pathways for developing partnerships and community engagement. Initiatives like these are pivotal in shaping service delivery frameworks for sensitive and crucial societal issues.
