Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea has awarded a contract for the provision of a Refugee Resettlement Programmes' Orientation Service. This contract, classified under social services (CPV: 85320000), is focused on supporting refugees arriving through UK Government Resettlement Programmes, including the Homes for Ukraine initiative. The procurement process, conducted via an open procedure, has been completed, and the contract has been awarded to the Ethnic Youth Support Team Wales. The service will be delivered in Swansea (region UKL18), with the contract signed on 12 February 2025, following a procurement process that included all relevant review and standstill periods as per the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

This tender represents a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in social services, particularly those with capabilities in guidance, interpretation, and translation services (CPV: 85312310, 79540000, 79530000). The awarded contract, valued at £2.05 million, offers a substantial financial incentive and the chance to work closely with local authorities on a high-impact social initiative. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like the Ethnic Youth Support Team Wales, who successfully secured the contract, are well-suited to compete, especially those with experience in delivering comprehensive community support and orientation programmes for refugees and migrants.
