Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by South Ayrshire Council, focused on the delivery of a Housing Support Service for individuals aged over 26. The project, titled "CE-141-25-B Delivery of a Housing Support Service to people aged over 26 years old," falls under the category of accommodation management services, identified by CPV code 98341100. The location specified for the service is in the UKM94 region. This contracting process is under the 'Award' stage, finalised on 30th October 2025, with the contract signed on 1st September 2025. The procurement was conducted through a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, in line with the Light Touch Regime (LTR) principles of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.

This contract represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in accommodation management services, particularly those familiar with or operating within the social services sector. The opportunity was perfectly suited for small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as demonstrated by the successful award to South Ayrshire Escape from Homelessness (SeAscape) Ltd, a local SME. The procurement approach, which did not require prior competition publicity, may appeal to businesses capable of providing linked services in such regulatory environments. Companies with existing local frameworks or networks in the social housing and support services markets would find similar contracts beneficial for growth and expansion.
