Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Homelessness Prevention Service" has been overseen by Pembrokeshire County Council, a sub-central government authority operating under Welsh devolved regulations. The process was carried out through an open procurement method using a competitive flexible procedure. It falls under the industry category of health and social work services, with a specific focus on services aimed at preventing homelessness. The contract has been awarded to The Wallich Clifford Community, with its operations primarily in the Pembrokeshire region of the United Kingdom. The procurement stage currently stands at the contract phase, with the contract active from 1st August 2026, and set to run until 31st July 2030, with an option to extend for an additional three years. Key dates included the contract award notice published on 15th June 2026 and the contract signing on 11th June 2026. The total gross value of the contract is £3,528,000, and it adheres to the procurement standards mandated by UKPGA 2023/54.

This contract presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in health and social services, particularly those offering innovative solutions to homelessness prevention. The flexible nature of the tender process and the strong emphasis on quality criteria and partnership working favour organisations that can demonstrate a robust operational expenses approach and a commitment to community benefits. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, given the procurement's inclusivity for such organisations during the selection criteria phase. The opportunity to engage with Pembrokeshire County Council opens pathways for growth in delivering impactful social services within Wales, leveraging local knowledge and capacity to address homelessness challenges effectively.
