Summary of the contracting process

Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council procured accommodation with support for homeless households under the Rough Sleeping Accommodation Programme. The service is a health and social work service for people aged 18 and over who are homeless and have identified support needs, predominantly single adults. It includes at least 11 accommodation units with one or two bedrooms, support to identify the causes of homelessness and barriers to moving on, and an achievable support plan. Residents should receive a pathway towards suitable alternative accommodation, including help with the council’s allocation process, private rented housing or social housing. The service is delivered in Yorkshire and the Humber and is funded through a Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government grant.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct proposal from an existing provider on the Housing Related Support Flexible Purchasing System, using the call-off route for housing-related support. The tender submission deadline was 31 March 2026 at 12:00. Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council awarded the contract to Action Housing Association Ltd on 12 June 2026 for £96,414. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 30 September 2027. The requirement covers a single service rather than separately reported lots. The procurement is classified as a services contract, with suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprise organisations.

This award shows demand for specialist homelessness accommodation and support from Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council, procured through its Housing Related Support Flexible Purchasing System. Relevant providers would need to secure and manage at least 11 one- or two-bedroom units, primarily for single adults, and support people aged 18 and over with identified needs. Credible delivery would require trauma-informed practice, assessment of the underlying causes of homelessness, individual support planning and practical move-on work. Providers should be able to help residents navigate council allocations and source suitable private rented or social housing. Housing associations, homelessness charities, supported accommodation providers and other SMEs or VCSEs with this operational capability are well placed.
