MOPAC: Prison Violence Reduction Interventions (Phase 2)

The procurement process for "MOPAC: Prison Violence Reduction Interventions (Phase 2)" was carried out by the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime. The initiative aims to address the complex needs of violent offenders in London prisons through the delivery of services such as Remand Support, Mentoring, and Behaviour Change Interventions. This project, with a total value of £2,025,000, falls under the health and social work services category and takes place in London, UK.

The procurement was conducted via an open procedure, reaching the award stage with the contract period set from 11 December 2024 to 31 July 2026. Key deadlines include the tender period end date on 10 December 2024, after which the contract was awarded to suppliers CATCH22 CHARITY LIMITED and BELONG: Making Justice Happen. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialised in health and social work services, particularly those focused on rehabilitation and offender support.

Companies that are suited to compete in this space include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) capable of providing tailored interventions for violence reduction in the prison system. The project not only has the potential to impact offender outcomes positively but also allows successful bidders to expand their service offerings and apply their expertise in a critical social sector within the Greater London area.
