Summary of the contracting process

Cyngor Sir Ceredigion County Council has completed the procurement process for a contract titled "Ceredigion - Provision of Housing Support for Families." The contract, awarded via an open procedure, aims to deliver housing-related support services across Ceredigion. According to the most recent update in April 2026, the contract has been signed and is currently active. With services classified under housing and social support, this procurement falls within the services industry category. The contract commenced on 1st April 2026 and will run until 31st March 2030, with an optional extension of up to 24 months. The purchasing organisation operates under Welsh devolved regulations, strengthening its commitment to regional needs.

This tender presents significant business opportunities within the social services sector, particularly for organisations specialising in housing services, welfare, and community support.

The procurement notably attracted players like The Wallich Clifford Community, a sizeable VCSE entity, underscoring the focus on both social value and quality service delivery.
