Summary of the contracting process

Bassetlaw District Council commissioned a consultation and engagement service for the development of the Worksop Together Investment Plan. The work covers engagement with specific groups in Worksop, with a particular focus on businesses and the community. The engagement is intended to identify priorities and delivery timescales for projects, while involving local people from project conception through to delivery. This is a public-sector community engagement and development consultancy requirement, delivered in Worksop for the council. It combines structured consultation, stakeholder engagement and support for investment planning, and is relevant to organisations experienced in bringing together businesses, community groups and residents to shape local regeneration or place-based initiatives.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to BCVS. The award was made on 7 July 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. It covers one completed lot under a below-threshold procedure described as ‘below threshold - unknown’. The contract runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £49,918.02 excluding VAT, or £59,901.62 including VAT. The awarded service is classified as development consultancy. The contract is active, as is the award. The procurement was evaluated as a services requirement, with the published information identifying the consultation and engagement scope rather than setting out a separate weighting of price, quality or other award criteria.

This procurement shows demand from Bassetlaw District Council for a supplier able to plan and deliver local consultation, rather than simply provide desk-based advice. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical experience engaging businesses, community organisations and residents, particularly where different groups must help define investment priorities and project delivery plans. Useful capability would include stakeholder mapping, inclusive engagement methods, workshop and consultation delivery, evidence gathering, analysis of feedback and clear reporting that can inform public investment decisions. Experience of place-based regeneration, community development or development consultancy in a district or town setting would strengthen a supplier’s position. The successful supplier, BCVS, is a large voluntary, community or social enterprise, indicating that this type of organisation can satisfy the council’s engagement needs.
