## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Leicestershire is seeking a provider to deliver an independent domestic violence adviser service focused on children’s courts. The procurement is for support connected with child-focused court proceedings, within the wider community, health and social work services sector. The stated delivery area covers England’s North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. This is a single service requirement rather than a set of separately described lots. The commissioner is the buying organisation; the service is intended to operate across the listed English regions.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition under a below-threshold procedure. The tender set an enquiry deadline of 14 October 2026 at 15:00 and a submission deadline of 22 October 2026 at 15:00. The contract period was set to run from 4 January 2027 to 31 March 2028. The estimated value is £230,574 excluding VAT (£276,688 including VAT). The requirement is one lot, and bids are evaluated on quality alone, weighted at 100%. Electronic submission is permitted. The procurement is designated as a light-touch services regime.

This opportunity is suited to suppliers able to provide specialist independent domestic violence adviser support in a child-focused court setting, with delivery capability spanning multiple English regions. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises are identified as suitable participants, so the requirement is not reserved to large providers. The quality-only evaluation makes the proposed service approach central to competition rather than price scoring. Relevant providers are likely to be those with practical experience supporting children and families affected by domestic abuse through court-related processes, and the staffing, safeguarding and regional reach to deliver a consistent service across the area. The stated scope is focused on the adviser service; the procurement does not set out specific accreditation or capacity thresholds in the structured requirements.
