## Summary

The Ministry of Justice announced a successful completion of the procurement process for the provision of Library Services at HMP Lewes. This tender falls under the Prison Services category and was valued at approximately £231,408.16. The procurement method utilised was a direct single tender action due to it being below the threshold. The contract period is set to run from 1st July 2022 until 31st March 2025, with the tender period concluding on 31st March 2022. The delivery address encompasses various locations, including the postal code BN7 1EA, as well as multiple regions such as the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.

This opportunity can facilitate growth for both small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations looking to enter the service sector. Given that the procurement was directed towards a specific service within the justice system, businesses offering library or educational services tailored for correctional facilities would be particularly well-positioned to compete in future tenders. Engaging with this contracting authority may also lead to further opportunities within the public sector, enhancing service delivery in a highly specialised environment.
