## Summary

The Leicester City Council has completed the procurement process for the "FEW1374 - Service User Participation Service" contract. This procurement falls under the category of Health and Social Work Services, indicating a focus on community and public health support. The contract was directly awarded to Mosaic 1898 Ltd, with a total value of £48,000. This direct award follows a failed bid process and allows the contract to extend from 1st July 2024 to 30th June 2025. The procurement method employed was a direct award, reflecting a strategic decision by the council to maintain service continuity while considering further developments. The services will be delivered across England, enhancing regional service engagement.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for SMEs and VCSEs, particularly those specialising in health and social services. Companies that provide innovative participation services designed to align with departmental ambitions are well-suited to engage with similar future procurements by leveraging experience in direct awards or unsuccessful bidding situations. It encourages collaboration with public bodies like the Leicester City Council to explore potential to fulfil public service requirements while enhancing organisational capabilities. Regional service-oriented businesses and partnerships in the United Kingdom can benefit from familiarity with similar procurement processes, aiding their business expansion within the council’s operational domain.

## Notice

Leicester City Council (the Authority) undertook a procurement exercise late 2022 to secure a new 'Service User' Participation service which sought to bring the service more in line with the current ambitions of the department. Despite a lot of interest, this failed to attract bids from any providers, therefore a direct award was approved to extend the contract for a further year until June 2024 to allow Commissioners to undertake further work.
