Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Brighton & Hove City Council procured temporary accommodation consultancy services for delivery in the South East of England. The requirement is classified as business and management consultancy and related services under CPV 79400000. The work concerns consultancy focused specifically on temporary accommodation, making it relevant to organisations that advise public bodies on this area, rather than to suppliers of accommodation, construction or general facilities management alone. The buying organisation is Brighton & Hove City Council, based at Town Hall in Hove. The procurement is categorised as a service and relates to a single, council-wide requirement for temporary accommodation consultancy in the South East.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Brighton & Hove City Council used a selective procedure to call off the requirement from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 21 January 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded on 17 July 2026 to 31ten Consulting Limited for £213,300 excluding VAT. The contract period runs from 22 January 2026 to 31 December 2026. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active, and the awarded contract covers the full temporary accommodation consultancy requirement. The published procurement value and awarded value are both £213,300.

This award demonstrates a public-sector requirement for specialist consultancy on temporary accommodation within Brighton & Hove City Council and the wider South East context. It is most relevant to consultancies that can provide business and management advice focused on temporary accommodation, housing-related operational challenges and public-sector decision-making. The procurement was suitable for SMEs, and the selected supplier, 31ten Consulting Limited, is itself an SME, showing that a smaller consultancy can be credible for this type of council assignment. Future competitors would need a clearly relevant temporary accommodation offer, the capacity to deliver a defined council consultancy engagement and an understanding of public-sector framework call-offs. Evidence of comparable consultancy work would strengthen credibility when this requirement is next reviewed.
