Summary of the contracting process

Bassetlaw District Council commissioned a comprehensive and inclusive engagement and consultation service for children and young people. The work supports development of the Worksop Together Investment Plan under the Pride in Place programme. It is a services contract in the field of development consultancy, focused on involving children and young people in shaping local investment priorities. Delivery is centred on Worksop, where the council is based and where the investment plan is being developed. The requirement would suit organisations able to design and deliver structured consultation, engage young people inclusively, gather and interpret views, and turn engagement findings into practical evidence for a local investment strategy. The selected provider is BCVS, a Worksop-based voluntary, community and social enterprise.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Bassetlaw District Council used a below-threshold procedure whose specific method is recorded as unknown. There was one completed lot. The contract was awarded to BCVS on 7 July 2026 and signed on the same date. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £34,918.01 excluding VAT, or £41,901.61 including VAT. The award covers development consultancy services for the children and young people engagement requirement. The award is active and the contract is active. The published outcome identifies BCVS as the single supplier, rather than dividing the work between multiple providers. The procurement was below the applicable threshold.

This award provides a clear reference point for organisations competing for similar work with Bassetlaw District Council. A credible future supplier would need demonstrable capability in inclusive consultation with children and young people, including methods that enable a broad range of participants to contribute meaningfully. Experience of community engagement and development consultancy would be relevant, particularly the ability to convert qualitative feedback into clear recommendations for an investment plan. Local knowledge of Worksop and the ability to work with public, community and voluntary-sector stakeholders would strengthen a bid, while a robust approach to safeguarding, accessibility, participation and evidence gathering would support delivery credibility. The successful supplier’s voluntary, community and social enterprise status also indicates the value placed on community-rooted engagement expertise.
