The project is focused on providing services related to administration and community, aligning with new legislative requirements under the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022. This open competition procurement, under the light-touch regime, has been concluded with the award of a contract to RED SNAPPER LEARNING LTD, commencing on 4 August 2025 and ending on 3 August 2026, with potential two 12-month extensions. Located in the UK, specifically Lincoln, this initiative forms part of widespread efforts to introduce a mandatory two-tier framework for Out of Court Resolutions, valued at £250,000. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specializing in legal administrative services, digital learning, and interventions, especially those capable of delivering scalable solutions that can cater to diverse populations, including non-English speakers across Lincolnshire. SMEs with expertise in online educational programs that can provide interactive, accessible, and comprehensive solutions for offenders to meet legal compliance and behavioural improvement will find this contract particularly advantageous. The project lays a solid foundation for those in the rehabilitation and community service sectors to engage in sustainable partnerships with law enforcement entities, contributing to community welfare and justice system efficiency. ## Notice The Home Office and Ministry of Justice recommend that forces implement a team and process to deal with OOCR and the force is required to have a range of diversionary activities at its disposal. ### Planning Information • Can the supplier provide an intervention programme that will take account the requirements of, and facilitate compliance with, relevant legislation and guidelines including, but not limited to accessibility guidelines. • Can the supplier accept referrals directly from either the contracting Force or a Force approved third party (for example, Youth Offending or an intervention agency). • Can the supplier provide electronic interventions that are accessible by users using any 'smart device' (smart phone, tablet, computer) and be available for users to work their way through a structured programme in their own time and at their own pace, saving progress and with a form of reproduceable, downloadable or otherwise form of certificate of completion • Can the supplier provide a service that will manage referrals on an "offender-pays" basis, with capability to also accept externally funded referrals not included in the offender pays structure. • Can the supplier provide a breakdown of charges for the service as the cost of interventions must be at a reasonable, ethical and affordable level so that Clients can afford to pay for the intervention.
