Summary of the contracting process

The Worthing Borough Council is conducting a procurement process for the "Provision of Temporary Accommodation and Associated Services" in Worthing, West Sussex. This service falls within the accommodation services category under the main procurement classification of services. The contract, which has been awarded, is active and entails an initial term of five years with an option to extend for an additional five years. Due to the unprecedented demand for emergency temporary accommodation arising from the Covid-19 pandemic, the procurement method selected was limited, allowing for a swift response to meet urgent housing needs.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in temporary accommodation and management services. Companies that provide innovative solutions for housing, especially those equipped to handle emergency and transitional accommodation for homeless households, would be particularly well-positioned to compete in this procurement process. The swift decision-making required in this process highlights the need for nimble and responsive businesses that can deliver cost-effective solutions under pressured circumstances.

Notice Title

Provision of Temporary Accommodation and Associated Services

Notice Description

Provision of temporary accommodation and associated management services to enable the council to fulfil its statutory housing duties.

Lot Information

Lot 1

Worthing Borough Council is entering into a 5 year contract with an option to extend it to a further 5 years for the provision of a temporary accommodation, including accommodation management services for homeless households that are owed a housing duty by the local authority under Sections 188 and 193 of the Housing Act 1996 or any other relevant housing legislation.

Options: The intial term of the contract is expected to be 5 years. The option exists to extend the arrangement by further 5 years subject to the Council's authority and budget.

Procurement Information

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused an unprecedented demand for emergency/ temporary accommodation that has forced the Council to use very expensive bed and breakfast and nightly booked accommodation. This has resulted in a sharp increase in spending that requires a quick response to secure accommodation at lower cost. If the Council is unable to acquire accommodation quickly this could result in the Council coming into financial difficulties.
