Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by Buckinghamshire Council for the "Accommodation Based Housing Support Service (Medium and High-Level Support)" has successfully reached the award stage. It focuses on providing housing support for individuals aged 18-70 who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. This contract, valued at approximately £1,285,152.29, employs an open procurement method and will be held at Aylesbury. The awarded supplier, Centennial Property Limited (t/a The Housing Network), will begin delivering services from 9th March 2026 to 8th March 2029, with the potential to extend for an additional two years. The main industry category is services, specifically social work services with accommodation, to be delivered in region UKJ13. The standstill period for any objections ends on 10th December 2025, while the contract is scheduled for signature by 19th December 2025.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in social housing and support services. With an emphasis on support for individuals in high-risk categories, organisations like Centennial Property Limited can leverage their expertise in managing accommodation and providing care to reinforce their market position. Such contracts suit large providers who have established infrastructure and resources, as these are critical to effectively supporting the identified client needs across medium and high-support requirements. Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary sector organisations can potentially engage as subcontractors or partners, contributing their specialised knowledge in specific localities or customer segments, thus building their capacity and experience in public sector contracting.
