MOPAC: Violence Against Women And Girls (VAWG) Expert Reference Group Provider (MOPAC 1176)
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
The Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC) in London has recently completed the procurement process for the provision of the Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) Expert Reference Group (ERG) services. The tender, identified as MOPAC 1176, was conducted through an open procedure focusing on services within the health and social work services industry category. The awarded contract will run from 1st January 2026 to 31st March 2029, with a gross contract value of £376,331.92.
The process has moved through the award stage, with Tender Education and Arts being selected as the supplier. This project is crucial as it aligns with the Mayor's plan to enhance safety and support for women and girls across London. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in services aimed at reducing violence, supporting victims, and enhancing community safety.
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), are particularly well-suited to compete for such tenders due to the emphasis on quality and the collaborative nature of the ERG initiative. Businesses with a strong track record in public service missions, particularly those focusing on health and social services, will find opportunities for growth and contribution to public safety and community reform efforts in London. This is a valuable avenue for entities seeking to broaden their influence and impact within the public sector.
Tackling VAWG continues to be a key priority for the Mayor of London as outlined in his election manifesto. In March 2025, the Mayor published his new Police and Crime Plan (PCP) 2025-29 which sets out how he will deliver for Londoners, building on the work of the previous two Mayoral terms to make London a safer city for everyone. The plan has four key aims: *Reducing violence and criminal exploitation (including VAWG) *Building safer, more confident communities *Supporting and overseeing reform of the MPS; and *Improving the criminal justice system and supporting victims Tackling VAWG is a key issue that is addressed throughout all four priorities of the PCP.
The MOPAC VAWG Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) Expert Reference Group (ERG) is an independent, non-statutory group of VAWG sector experts, whose role is to provide collective and strategic input and expertise, ensuring that the needs and experiences of women and girls, victims and survivors, and their organisations in London, are represented and amplified at decision-making levels. Recognising the significant contributions of the current VAWG ERG to date, and the sustained volume and breadth of work they support, the Mayor has increased his investment in the VAWG ERG for the remaining 3.5 years of his Mayoralty. The new service will play a vital role in supporting the Mayor to deliver his VAWG priorities including making women and girls safer by preventing VAWG, supporting victims and survivors, and holding perpetrators to account and reducing VAWG.
