## Summary

The Ministry of Justice is procuring services under a contract titled "Women's Services in Essex". This initiative falls under the probation services industry and is located in the East of England. The procurement process is at the award stage, having been completed on 6 April 2021. The contract, valued at approximately £1,260,231, is set to commence on 26 June 2021 and will run until 31 March 2025. The procurement method employed is selective, involving a call-off from an established framework agreement, with a tender period that closed on 11 January 2021.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), looking to engage in probation services. Companies that specialise in rehabilitative and resettlement interventions will be particularly well-suited to participate in future competitive opportunities linked to this contract. As the Ministry seeks providers to deliver essential services from June 2021, interested businesses should consider aligning their capabilities with the needs outlined in the Probation Services Dynamic Framework to maximise their potential for growth.

## Notice

In June 2020 the Ministry of Justice established the Probation Services Dynamic Framework (PSDF) to allow the Authority and Participating Bodies to purchase services to deliver rehabilitative and resettlement interventions. The Dynamic Framework and subsequent Call-Off Competitions are conducted in line with the Light Touch Regime of PCR2015. The Authority has utilised the PSDF to procure a range of services to meet The Authority's requirements that must be live on Day 1 of delivery which is 26 June 2021. Only bidders that were qualified onto the PSDF within the appropriate financial thresholds, relevant regions and the appropriate service categories were invited to the Call-Off Competitions. All guidance on this is available within the PSDF Contract Notice and subsequent documentation.
