Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lancashire is planning a procurement process for the "Lancashire Champions Programme," a service focused on providing intensive, trauma-informed mentoring for young people at risk of serious harm or exploitation. This procurement falls under the categories of health services and social work, and will be based in the UK, specifically targeting the Lancashire area. The process is currently in the planning stage as of 25th June 2026. Potential suppliers should be aware of the significant forthcoming deadlines, including the end of the tender period on 21st September 2026, and the end of the enquiry period on 7th September 2026. The procurement will follow an open procedure, allowing English electronic submissions, with a projected total value of £2,374,000 excluding VAT.

This tender presents notable opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the health and social services sectors capable of providing mentoring and support services for vulnerable youth. Firms with experience in delivering trauma-informed care will find themselves well-positioned to thrive. Additionally, since the tender highlights suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), these types of organisations are encouraged to participate. Engaging in this programme not only offers financial benefits but also contributes positively to the community by addressing critical social issues, thus providing a multifaceted growth opportunity for businesses dedicated to societal welfare.
