Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, in collaboration with the West London Alliance (WLA), has announced an extension of their existing Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for semi-independent accommodation and support services. This procurement process, falling under the Social Work Services industry category (CPV code 85310000), will cater to young people aged 16-25 across England and Wales. The eight-year contract, structured as a 5 + 1 + 1 + 1 procurement vehicle, is currently at the Tender stage. Following the recent regulatory changes in the sector related to Ofsted regulated provision, the model will be redesigned to meet new standards. The extension period of 12 months, from the initial 60 months, allows for the required adjustments. Potential bidders must submit their applications by 31st March 2026. The total estimated value of the services procured during the DPS is £200 million.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in social work services and accommodation support for young people. Companies within the UK capable of providing high-quality services in compliance with new regulatory standards will find this contract particularly suited to their expertise. The framework agreement will accommodate a broad spectrum of local authorities, enhancing the potential customer base and facilitating growth through stable, long-term – albeit non-guaranteed – contracts. The electronic submission method ensures streamlined access for businesses capable of meeting the suitability, economic, and technical criteria outlined in the procurement documentation. Given the substantial estimated value and extensive duration of the DPS, this tender provides ample scope for businesses to increase their market presence and secure steady revenue streams.
