Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council procured a women’s domestic and sexual violence and abuse service, described as a women’s DSVA SMD Service. The requirement falls within health and social work services and concerns community-based support delivered in the East Midlands, with Nottingham as the relevant local authority and supplier base. The service sits within the council’s wider framework for domestic and sexual violence and abuse, and violence against women and girls services. It is therefore relevant to organisations providing specialist support to women affected by domestic or sexual violence, particularly those able to operate community-based services in Nottingham and the surrounding East Midlands area. The selected provider is Nottingham Women’s Centre, a Nottingham-based small or medium-sized enterprise.

This procurement has been completed and awarded through a limited procedure without prior publication of a competition, as a call-off from the existing domestic and sexual violence and abuse framework. Nottingham Women’s Centre was selected as the supplier, with one bid recorded. The award is active and the contract was signed on 1 July 2025. The contract value is £230,400. The procurement’s stated evaluation basis was price. It was arranged as a single community-based services lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the associated award and contract remain active. The contracting authority is Nottingham City Council. No contract end date or award date is provided, so the signed date is the relevant recorded timing for the resulting contract.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the outcome demonstrates local demand for specialist women’s domestic and sexual violence and abuse support delivered through community-based provision. A credible competitor for a future requirement from Nottingham City Council would need established expertise in supporting women affected by domestic or sexual violence, the ability to provide safe and effective services in community settings, and a practical understanding of local safeguarding, referral and partnership arrangements. The selected organisation is a Nottingham-based SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused local specialist rather than only by a large national provider. Experience of framework call-offs and the ability to submit a competitive price would also be important, because price was the stated award basis.
