Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside is developing a future service to support people affected by road traffic collisions, including injured victims and survivors, bereaved families, and people facing psychological, legal or financial difficulties. The aim is an integrated pathway offering timely, compassionate and expert support. The planned service falls within social work and related community support. Its delivery is described as being in the United Kingdom; no specific local area is identified. The Commissioner is engaging experienced service providers, charities and other stakeholders to understand how support is currently delivered and how the future service could be designed. This is a market-scoping exercise intended to inform commissioning, rather than a request for providers to submit a service proposal or tender.

The procurement remains at the planning and development stage. The Commissioner is using a preliminary market test to gather evidence about provider capacity, good practice, innovation and pricing, and to shape a future commissioning approach. The exercise is not a formal expression-of-interest or tender process; the Commissioner says it will not respond to clarification questions. Engagement is scheduled through 19 November 2026, which is an indicative date for this market exercise, not a bid deadline. The planned contract period runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2028. The published estimated value is £0, so it does not provide a usable indication of the eventual contract budget. The procurement is shown as one lot, with no evaluation criteria or procedure for a future competition stated.

This market-scoping work is most relevant to providers with practical experience supporting road traffic collision victims, survivors and bereaved families, including charities and specialist support organisations. Organisations able to explain existing service capacity, effective practice, innovative approaches and how services are priced can help shape the future service. The intended pathway spans potentially interconnected needs: physical injury, psychological trauma, and legal or financial challenges. Providers with expertise in coordinating timely, compassionate support across these areas are therefore well placed to contribute. The Commissioner is seeking insight from experienced service providers and stakeholders, but has not yet set out specific qualifications, accreditations, staffing levels or capacity thresholds for a future supplier. This is an opportunity to inform service design and prepare for possible later commissioning, not to compete for a contract at this stage.
