## Summary

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Merseyside & Chief Constable for Merseyside has concluded the procurement process titled "Community Fund Management". This initiative, which falls under financial transaction processing and clearing-house services, aims to secure a Community Fund Manager to coordinate grant allocation activities. The procurement was conducted through an open competition method, below the threshold, involving services as the main category. The process culminated in an award on 10th November 2025, with the contract slated to commence on 1st January 2026 and lasting through 31st December 2026, with potential extensions up to 2032. This contract covers regions across the United Kingdom, including the UKC, UKD, UKE, and others.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), particularly those with expertise in financial services for community development. By managing fund allocation on behalf of the Merseyside police, businesses can enhance their reputation and expand their operational scope. The contract's value of £350,000—with a further potential gross amount of £420,000 through renewals—makes it attractive for businesses experienced in fund management and capable of handling extensive regional operations across the UK. The successful bidder, Community Foundations for Lancashire and Merseyside, demonstrated suitability as an SME, successfully securing this opportunity to aid in economic and community development.
