Summary of the contracting process

South Tyneside Borough Council is planning to commission temporary supported housing for adults aged 18 and over experiencing multiple disadvantage. The service is intended for people who may face homelessness, mental ill health, and drug or alcohol dependency, combining accommodation with support suited to complex needs. This is a health and social work service, expected to be delivered in South Tyneside. The procurement is subject to the light-touch regime and is planned as a single service lot. The council is the buying organisation. The scope will interest housing providers, supported accommodation operators, homelessness charities, social care organisations and partnerships able to provide safe temporary housing alongside practical and wellbeing support for adults with multiple, overlapping needs.

This process is at the planning stage: the council has stated its intention to procure and has not yet invited tenders. It expects to use a tender procedure, with a future notice publication indicated for 1 July 2026. The planned contract period is 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2031. The estimated value is recorded as £0 including VAT, in pounds sterling, and the procurement is above the relevant threshold. The council has planned a supplier engagement event for 16 October 2026, with registration and networking from 9:45am and the event from 10am to noon, at One Trinity Green in South Shields. Suppliers are being engaged before the future competition, rather than responding to a tender now.

The work is likely to suit suppliers with experience of providing temporary supported housing for adults aged 18 and over whose needs may include homelessness, mental ill health and drug or alcohol dependency. Relevant organisations may include specialist housing providers, homelessness and supported-living charities, social care providers, and consortia combining accommodation and support expertise. Strong preparation would include demonstrating the ability to provide safe, suitable temporary accommodation and coordinated support for people experiencing multiple disadvantage. Providers should be ready to explain how they would work with residents whose needs overlap across housing, health and substance misuse services, and how they would sustain reliable delivery over a multi-year service period. The lot is identified as suitable for voluntary, community and social enterprises.
