Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Canterbury City Council is seeking to establish an interim contract for "Welfare Rights & Housing Advice" services, with an award value of £160,728. This contract is classified under social work and related services and is set to commence on 25th June 2020, lasting for one year until 24th June 2021. The decision to enter into an interim agreement comes in light of the ongoing needs created by the COVID-19 pandemic, with a tender period that concluded on 21st April 2020. The council is located in Canterbury, England, within the South East region of the UK, and will initiate a new procurement process once the full ramifications of COVID-19 are understood.

This tender presents significant opportunities for SMEs and local organisations specialising in social work and housing advice services, particularly those equipped to support vulnerable residents during challenging times. Businesses that can effectively respond to the needs arising from the pandemic, delivering tailored and sensitive service offerings, will be well-placed to compete for future contracts as the council prepares to reassess its procurement needs post-crisis.
