UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cardiff Council is undertaking procurement planning for a "Supported Accommodation Service - Ty Gobaith" in Cardiff, with a focus on accommodating single individuals with complex support needs. This procurement process falls under the services category, specifically social work and related services, following the light-touch regime guidelines. The process, regulated under Welsh devolved regulations, is currently at the planning stage with anticipated milestones such as a market engagement deadline set for 7th July 2025. The service commencement is expected on 1st April 2026, running initially for five years with possible extensions to 2033. Cardiff Council, a sub-central government public authority, will manage this tender through their Single Persons Gateway, ensuring compliance with the Renting Homes (Wales) Act.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses experienced in delivering 24/7 support services within large accommodation sites, capable of managing addictions and ensuring engagement with various support services. Providers with expertise in housing management, including setting rents and addressing anti-social behaviour, and those familiar with developing individual housing support plans that facilitate client transitions to permanent housing, will find the opportunity particularly advantageous. Businesses with the capability to provide or adapt sites to meet specific regulatory and client requirements, such as accessible, pet-friendly communal living spaces, are ideally positioned to compete effectively in this procurement process.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Supported Accommodation Service - Ty Gobaith

Notice Description

Cardiff Council is seeking to tender for a Supported Accommodation service aimed at single individuals with complex support needs. The tender will award the support aspect of service only. The tender focuses on support services for complex clients, with a contract duration of up to 7 years and an approximate annual budget of up to PS921,211, subject to funding confirmation. 70 units of accommodation are required on no more than one site, ensuring that the facilities meet specific requirements for vulnerable clients. The preference is self-contained accommodation; sites with shared facilities or bed spaces or pods would be considered. A review would be carried out to ensure standards. The provision has an abstinence pathway providing clients with access to support and services to enable them to manage addiction. Clients would present with complex needs and require support with ensuring engagement and access to not only substance misuse services but also, mental health services and engagement with Probation services. Each client will have a personalised housing support plan reviewed every 12 weeks set by staff. The plan would look to map the journey and secure move-on to permeant accommodation via the private rented sector or social housing. The contractor will handle housing management agreements, set rents, and address anti-social behaviour, while all client allocations will be managed by Cardiff Council's Single Persons Gateway. Compliance with the Renting Homes (Wales) Act is mandatory. The property must provide self-contained units where possible and include communal spaces for sessional work. It should be mixed-gender with provisions for disability access and pet-friendly policies. The site(s) must be ready and available for immediate use at the point of awarding contract. While the Council has access to a site, there is no guarantee that like for like buildings will be available for use.
