Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Lambeth has completed the procurement process for a contract concerning 'Social housing property solutions for homeless households'. This involves providing secure accommodation for eligible homeless households. The procurement method used was a direct award, primarily due to Bridge Housing being the sole supplier available to meet the statutory obligations of the council. The procurement falls under the 'services' category within the housing services industry and is set in London, United Kingdom. The contract is active and runs from 22nd August 2025 to 21st August 2026, with a possibility of renewal. The total gross value of the contract is £1,476,864.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses within the housing services sector, particularly those specialising in providing accommodation solutions for vulnerable groups. Though Bridge Housing Solutions, an SME, was directly awarded the contract, similar organisations capable of delivering tailored housing services could seek future collaborations. Companies adept in managing housing solutions or partnering with public authorities for social service delivery may find this sector promising for growth, notably as councils look to fulfil statutory duties regarding homelessness.
