Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Camden Council is extending the contracts for its Young People's Pathway Services, originally awarded in November 2018, for care-experienced young people aged 16-25. This short-term extension ranges from 4 to 8 months, aligning end dates to 31 May 2026. The pathway services fall under the social work services with accommodation category (CPV code 85311000) and are located in the London Borough of Camden (specific region: UKI31). The current procurement stage is in the 'Award' phase with the contracts having been signed on 21 March 2025. The procurement method was negotiated without publication of a contract notice due to the repetition of existing services under the directive conditions.

This extension represents a strategic opportunity for businesses engaged in social work services with accommodation to prepare for new tendering opportunities that will be issued in 2025/2026. Businesses specialising in housing support services for vulnerable young people, especially those with experience in the London region, will find this particularly relevant. The extension involves established suppliers like Centrepoint Soho, St Christopher's Fellowship, The Riverside Group, and Depaul UK, indicating clear opportunities for large-scale providers in the sector to compete for future long-term contracts once the new tender process commences.

Lot Information

Lot 1

This is not a new contract opportunity, but rather a VEAT notice to inform the market that the Contracting Authority is seeking to extend its existing contracts for its Young People's Pathway which were awarded in November 2018 and are due to expire on either 30 September 2025, 31 October 2025, 31 December 2025 and 31 January 2026. The extension period will range between four and eight months co-aligning end dates to 31 May 2026. The extension will enable the authority to continue to develop plans for the new services and will tender services in 2025/2026.

Procurement Information

This VEAT notice relates to modifications to nine contracts originally awarded on 1st November 2018. The proposed extensions are based on substantively the existing terms and conditions and does not render the contracts materially different in character as the same services are being provided. The Contracting Authority does not consider that if the contracts had originally been advertised to include these extensions that it would have attracted any different participants or candidates or that the outcome of the original procurements would have been any different.
