UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Croydon is procuring a domestic abuse and sexual violence supported accommodation refuge service for victim-survivors. The service combines accommodation with social work and wider support for people affected by domestic abuse and sexual violence. It is a social care and supported housing service, classified under health and social work services and social work services with accommodation and without accommodation. Delivery is in Croydon, within the London Borough of Croydon. The council is seeking one supplier for the requirement, which is categorised as a service rather than goods or works. The opportunity is relevant to organisations providing refuge accommodation, specialist domestic abuse support, sexual violence support, or integrated accommodation-based social care services.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission allowed in English via the Croydon Tenders Portal. The deadline for enquiries is 1 September 2026 at 17:00, and the deadline for offers is 7 September 2026 at 12:00. The proposed contract runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2033. Its estimated value is £1,360,000 excluding VAT and £1,632,000 including VAT. The contract is above the relevant threshold and is a single-lot requirement. Evaluation is based on quality at 60% and price at 40%. An award decision is due by 28 October 2026. The procurement is recurrent, with a further process anticipated from July 2033.

This opportunity suits suppliers with established experience of operating refuge or supported accommodation services for victim-survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence. Competitors are likely to need the operational capability to provide safe accommodation alongside specialist support, social work and safeguarding arrangements for people affected by abuse. The requirement may suit small and medium-sized enterprises as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises, which are expressly identified as suitable types of supplier. Organisations with an existing refuge network, experienced support and safeguarding teams, suitable accommodation capacity in or for Croydon, and a track record of delivering accommodation-based services should find the scope commercially relevant. The quality weighting makes service design, delivery arrangements and demonstrated outcomes important to the competition.
