Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Barking and Dagenham Council has procured an all-age behaviour change perpetrator service for Barking and Dagenham. This is a community and health support service for people who perpetrate abusive behaviour, designed around the safety and needs of victims, survivors and their children. The service is expected to challenge abusive behaviour, provide a safe environment for change and support or empower victims, survivors and children. It includes intensive one-to-one sessions delivered by a dedicated Violence Prevention Practitioner, together with signposting or referrals to specialist services and supported transitions where further help is required. The work is a light-touch public service requirement for organisations experienced in domestic abuse behaviour change, violence prevention, victim and survivor support, and coordinated referral pathways.

The procurement is complete following an open procedure. One lot was awarded to CRANSTOUN on 22 September 2026 for £1,253,126.56 excluding VAT (£1,503,752.40 including VAT). The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2030, with an option for the council to extend it by up to two years, in annual increments, to 31 March 2032. Tenders had to be submitted by 8 July 2026 at 12:00, and enquiries closed on 26 June 2026 at 17:00. Evaluation weighted quality at 70%, social value at 10% and price at 20%. One bid was received and one reached the final stage; the sole bidder was an SME, while no VCSE final-stage bid was recorded.

This award demonstrates a substantial, multi-year requirement for specialist behaviour-change provision commissioned by Barking and Dagenham Council. A credible future competitor would need to deliver structured interventions for perpetrators across all ages, including intensive one-to-one work led by appropriately capable violence-prevention practitioners. It would also need a strong safeguarding approach that keeps victims, survivors and children in view while working directly with perpetrators. Experience of addressing abusive behaviour, creating safe spaces for change, assessing when specialist support is needed, and making effective referrals would be central. Providers should be able to demonstrate reliable partnership working, continuity through transitions and the capacity to sustain community-based delivery. The evaluation places much greater emphasis on service quality and social value than on price, so evidence of outcomes, delivery quality and wider community benefit would be important.
