Summary of the contracting process

London Borough of Havering is exploring the commissioning of a pilot weight management service for children and young people in Havering. The service would provide a structured, evidence-based healthy weight intervention, covering the health support needed to help children and young people manage their weight. This is a health services requirement. The buying organisation is the London Borough of Havering, a local authority based in Romford. Delivery is intended to take place in Havering. The procurement is being developed as a single requirement rather than a set of separate lots. Organisations working in children’s health, weight management, public health, nutrition, behavioural support or related community services may find the subject matter relevant, provided they can deliver a structured intervention for children and young people.

This procurement is at the planning stage. Havering is carrying out preliminary market engagement to explore the potential commissioning of the pilot before inviting tenders. Interested organisations are expected to complete the Preliminary Market Engagement Questionnaire through Atamis and return it by 12 noon on 30 September 2026; the recorded milestone date is 30 September 2026. The buyer expects a further notice on 30 November 2026. The anticipated contract period is 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2028, with the possibility of renewal extending to 31 March 2030. The estimated total value is £300,000 including tax, in GBP. There is one planned lot, and the requirement is identified as suitable for SMEs and VCSEs.

The market engagement is relevant to suppliers that can design and deliver structured, evidence-based healthy weight interventions for children and young people. This may suit specialist weight management providers, public health organisations, healthcare providers, charities, social enterprises and community organisations with an appropriate service model for children and young people in Havering. The buyer has identified the requirement as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, which may support participation by organisations operating at a local or specialist scale. Suppliers should use the engagement phase to explain their experience, delivery approach and ability to provide a pilot service for children and young people, and to help shape the future commissioning model before the tender stage.
