UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice procured an annual Beacon membership subscription from Employer Initiative on Domestic Abuse (EIDA). The service is a membership organisation service supporting EIDA as a Beacon Company. The buying organisation is the Ministry of Justice, a central government department based in London, and the supplier is also based in London. The requirement concerns participation in the Beacon membership programme rather than the purchase of goods, construction or a broader consultancy service. The procurement is therefore relevant to organisations that provide structured membership, employer-network or related organisational support services, particularly those working in the domestic abuse and workplace-support field. The published scope identifies one service requirement, with activity associated with the Ministry of Justice and EIDA.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The award is active and was made to Employer Initiative on Domestic Abuse. The contract was signed on 12 August 2026 and runs from 12 August 2026 to 28 February 2027. Its value is £15,000 excluding VAT and £18,000 including VAT. The tender was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive procedure, and the procurement used one completed lot. The requirement was described as an annual subscription for Beacon membership, with an annual cost of £15,000. The contract is active, and the recorded award confirms EIDA as the selected supplier for the membership service.

This award shows that the Ministry of Justice buys formal membership in an employer-focused initiative addressing domestic abuse, with the membership intended to support Beacon Company status. It is commercially relevant to membership bodies, employer networks and specialist organisations able to provide a defined programme rather than a one-off advisory assignment. Credible competitors would need a recognised membership offer, a clear structure for supporting participating employers and credible subject expertise in domestic abuse, workplace policy or organisational culture. The selected supplier is a large organisation, suggesting that the buyer accepted a provider with established organisational capacity. Businesses tracking this requirement should treat the award as evidence of a specific central-government demand for specialist membership support and assess whether they can demonstrate comparable programme governance, employer engagement and subject-matter credibility.
