Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Waltham Forest is commissioning youth providers to deliver quality youth provision in community settings through its Space4all programme. The framework may also cover additional services that complement the core youth offer. The work is a youth support and community-based service, classified under CPV 98133110, for delivery in Waltham Forest, London. The contracting authority is the London Borough of Waltham Forest. The arrangement is intended for organisations able to provide youth activities and related provision in local community settings. It is a framework rather than a single guaranteed service package, so providers may be called upon for relevant youth provision and complementary services as requirements arise. The opportunity is therefore suited to specialist youth organisations and other providers with an established community delivery model.

The process reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. It is a framework agreement with up to 25 participating suppliers and one lot. The framework has an estimated maximum value of £800,000, with no guarantee of spend or usage. The contract period is 1,440 days and there are no renewal or additional-purchase options recorded. Bids had to be submitted electronically in English by 28 August 2026 at 12:00. The evaluation basis is quality at 60% and price at 40%; variants were not allowed. The tender was due to enter its award period from 28 August 2026 at 12:00, with bid opening scheduled for the same time. The framework is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This opportunity suits youth charities, voluntary-sector organisations, social enterprises and specialist youth service providers with the capability to deliver consistent, good-quality provision in community settings. Relevant strengths include planning and running youth activities, engaging young people locally, managing safe and reliable sessions, and working effectively with community partners. Providers offering complementary services alongside core youth provision may also be well placed where those services support the programme's aims. The 60% quality weighting means bidders need to demonstrate a strong delivery approach, clear service standards and credible arrangements for meeting young people's needs, rather than competing on price alone. The framework structure favours organisations able to respond to future requirements over a substantial service period, while its multi-supplier model may suit providers seeking repeat call-off opportunities rather than one standalone commission.
