## Summary

The London Borough of Barking and Dagenham is actively engaged in a procurement process to commission a "Community Money Education and Early Intervention Advice Model." This initiative, under the industry category of community services, is aimed at delivering preventive financial education and early intervention advice by the Voluntary, Community, Faith, and Social Enterprise (VCFSE) sector. Located in Barking and Dagenham, UKI52 region, the procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with key deadlines including the inquiry period ending on 22nd June 2026, and the tender submission deadline set for 30th June 2026.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for local SMEs and VCFSE organisations, particularly those with expertise in community services, financial education, and community engagement. By participating, businesses can enhance their growth through collaboration with a trusted public authority and contribute positively to societal impacts by enabling financial resilience and education within communities. The project involves a competitive evaluation focusing on quality (60%), social value (10%), and pricing (30%), making it an ideal opportunity for businesses seeking to highlight their service quality and community value orientation. Given its alignment with neighbourhood networks and local embedding, enterprises familiar with the region could find themselves well-suited for this contract.

## Notice

The Council is seeking to commission a preventative, community-enabled money education and early intervention model to be delivered by the Voluntary, Community, Faith, Social Enterprise (VCFSE) sector. The model will focus on financial education and resilience, money confidence, and early identification of financial risk, supporting residents before problems escalate into unmanageable debt or crisis, and before statutory or specialist debt advice models (e.g. Citizens Advice) are required. The Council recognises that VCFSE organisations are well placed to deliver trusted, accessible and culturally appropriate education within communities and wishes to commission a model that aligns with our neighbourhood networks, is embedded locally, partnership-led, and prevention-focused. The Council is taking account of PPN 005: Reserving below threshold procurement; this tender is reserved for VCSEs and SMEs within the Borough of Barking and Dagenham.
