Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by the London Borough of Southwark, under the title "SC1 London Work Experience Pilot," involved appointing We Rise Limited as the supplier. This contract, pertaining to the health and life sciences sector, was managed collaboratively by the London Boroughs of Southwark and Lambeth, highlighting their focus on catering to underrepresented communities in these regions, including the UKI44 and UKI45 areas. The procurement process followed a "limited" method due to its below-threshold status, and the procurement stage has been completed with the contract now active. This project commenced on 27 April 2026 and will conclude on 31 March 2027, with a gross contract value of £49,973.

This tender presents excellent opportunities for businesses within the services industry, particularly those that specialise in career guidance and youth education services. Given the emphasis on engaging communities underrepresented in the health and life sciences fields, companies with expertise in community outreach and educational programme delivery will find this contract particularly advantageous. The procurement setting also suits small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) eager to collaborate with local government bodies to drive inclusive economic development in the London area.
