This contract, with a gross value of £360,000, is currently in the planning stage. It targets the strategic management, coordination, and oversight of the Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) Expert Reference Group. The procurement process is aimed at supporting the delivery of the Mayor's strategic priorities as outlined in the updated Police & Crime Plan 2025-29. An information event is planned for 18th August 2025, from 1:30-2:30 pm via Microsoft Teams, where interested parties can learn more about timelines and application procedures. Interested organisations must register for the event by 5 pm on 14th August 2025. This tender presents significant opportunities for organisations experienced in strategic leadership within the VAWG sector to bring their expertise to a high-profile public authority project. The successful bidder will provide operational and strategic leadership and manage collaboration with MOPAC and the VAWG sector. With the long-term contract running until March 2029, businesses skilled in health and social work services and those experienced in VAWG subject-matter expertise will find this a promising opportunity to contribute to the public sector's ambitions while expanding their influence within the industry. ## Notice As outlined in the Mayor of London's Police & Crime Plan (PCP) 2025-29, tackling violence against women and girls (VAWG) remains a key priority. Alongside the PCP, the Mayor's VAWG Strategy 2022-25 sets out a long-term ambition to eradicate VAWG, and for every women and girl to be able to participate. The Mayor is currently in the process of refreshing this strategy for 2025-29 which will be published later this year, supporting the PCP and Domestic Abuse Safe Accommodation (DASA) Strategy 2025-28. To support the delivery of the Mayor's objectives and the above strategies, we have committed to recommissioning the VAWG Expert Reference Group (ERG) until March 2029. MOPAC is seeking an organisation that will deliver the management, coordination and oversight of the VAWG ERG, providing strategic and operational leadership, to support the delivery of the Mayor's strategic priorities. This organisation will bring experience in strategic leadership on VAWG, and facilitate VAWG ERG members to establish a collective voice while bringing extensive VAWG subject-matter expertise and coordinate effective collaboration between MOPAC and the VAWG sector.
