Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council has awarded a contract under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023, bypassing the standard Public Contracts Regulations 2025. The contract, "FEW1505 - Home Group DATRIG 25-26," focuses on health and social work services and includes a direct award to Home Group Limited. The procurement process was classified as a limited procurement method without prior publication, signifying that no competition was held due to the unique capabilities of Home Group. The contract is valued at £56,300 and has a duration from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, with services delivered in the Leicester region (UKF21).

This tender offers potential growth in the healthcare support services sector, specifically for businesses with expertise in substance use treatment and housing-related support. The nature of the procurement—direct award due to unique existing provider capabilities—indicates that opportunities may largely exist for subcontractors or those looking to establish similar services in collaboration with primary contractors like Home Group. Businesses interested in such collaborative efforts or capable of offering ancillary services to the prime contract holder might find lucrative opportunities emerging from this award.

Notice Title

FEW1505 - Home Group DATRIG 25-26

Notice Description

This contract has been awarded under PSR Direct Award Option A. No other provider than the core contract holder has the means to do this effectively. The fact that it is already delivering the Substance Use Housing Related Support Service is a key requirement to the award and means that the provider is the only one that is capable of delivering the required works so a soft market test is not sensible. This is ringfenced funding for this purpose and is cost neutral to the authority. The grant funding is specifically to enhance existing local services rather than set up or bring in new ones, therefore there are no other providers who would be able to fulfil the requirements of the grant and contract. This request represents a continuation of existing work and programmes that the drug and alcohol funding has been supporting for a few years now. Most of the work covered under these agreements / FEW's is already underway and well embedded in services. Home Group provides housing-related, abstinence-based accommodation support and floating support for those engaged with specialist substance use treatment services. Homegroup provide medium term temporary accommodation for around 10-12 abstinent service users to aid in their recovery and offer floating support services around housing and general life admin to a larger group of 50+ service users.
