## Summary

Leicestershire Police is conducting a public procurement process titled "VRN Review," aimed at commissioning evaluations for interventions addressing serious violence in Leicester. Classified under the CPV codes for research services and social research services, this procurement is currently in the award stage. The contract period runs from 12 October 2021 to 31 March 2022, with a total contract value of £30,000, which cannot exceed £30,000. The tender deadline has passed as it was originally set to close on 23 September 2021. The service delivery location is in the East Midlands region of the UK.

This procurement presents opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in research and evaluation services, particularly in the context of social issues. Companies with experience in impact evaluations, especially in public safety and social research, would be well-positioned to compete for similar tenders in the future. Engaging in this sector can facilitate growth as authorities increasingly focus on evidence-based interventions for public safety.

## Notice

One of the ways that we achieve our aim is to commission and test interventions which we believe will have an impact on serious violence locally. We draw on the available evidence-base but also embed evaluation into these interventions so we can test them locally and contribute to our local and national understanding of what works in preventing serious violence and associated harms such as exploitation. We are looking to commission one evaluator to conduct impact evaluations of two Leicester-based interventions. Please note that the price cannot exceed the budget value of PS30,000.00
