Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk County Council has completed a procurement process for a new "Supported Living for Adults with Learning Disability and/or Physical Disabilities" scheme located in North Walsham, Norfolk. The procurement, using an open procedure method, sought to engage service providers for social work services without accommodation. This initiative, aimed to be operational by early 2027, involves the development of accommodation facilities including three bungalows, six apartments, and a staff hub to support nine adults. The contract, valued at approximately £11.52 million gross, was awarded on 27th May 2026, and is subject to a potential renewal extending up to 2041. This initiative aligns with strategic public service provisions and could involve administrative changes due to potential local government restructuring in Norfolk.

Businesses operating within the social care sector, specifically those specialising in supported living services, will find this opportunity highly beneficial for growth. Firms with capabilities to support adults with learning and physical disabilities can leverage their expertise to offer innovative service solutions. Suitable contenders would typically be organisations that can provide high-quality staffing and mobilisation, have a deep understanding of service requirements, and propose engaging, innovative service delivery methods. Small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as larger organisations with a robust service track record, are encouraged to engage, particularly those equipped to meet the quality criteria specified by the Council.

B. On 4 December 2025, the Secretary of State for Local Government made a written statement [UIN HCWS1128] stating that the government intends to establish a Mayoral Strategic Authority for Norfolk and Suffolk as soon as possible, and that it is minded to hold inaugural mayoral elections in May 2028. Should these processes lead to unitary local government in Norfolk and/or to the establishment of a Mayoral Strategic Authority covering Norfolk (i) the contract may be transferred, assigned or novated to any successor authority(ies) to the council, or to any joint body incorporating or formed by any such successor and/or to any Mayoral Strategic Authority; and/or (ii) the council or a successor authority or joint body may order services on behalf of other local authorities serving any area within Norfolk's current geographical boundaries.

This scheme will be developed during the course of 2026 and is due to open in early 2027. It will accommodate and provide support for 9 adults across three bungalows, six apartments and a staff hub on the same site. On 19 November 2025, the Minister of State for Local Government and Homelessness made a written statement [UIN HCWS1071] saying that three proposals for unitary local government in Norfolk had been received - these could entail the creation of one, two or three unitary councils. The Minister announced a consultation exercise, which ended on 11 January 2026. The Minister stated that \"once the consultations have concluded, the Government will assess the proposals against the criteria in the invitation and decide, subject to parliamentary approval, which, if any, proposals are to be implemented, with or without modification\". B. On 4 December 2025, the Secretary of State for Local Government made a written statement [UIN HCWS1128] stating that the government intends to establish a Mayoral Strategic Authority for Norfolk and Suffolk as soon as possible, and that it is minded to hold inaugural mayoral elections in May 2028. Should these processes lead to unitary local government in Norfolk and/or to the establishment of a Mayoral Strategic Authority covering Norfolk (i) the contract may be transferred, assigned or novated to any successor authority(ies) to the council, or to any joint body incorporating or formed by any such successor and/or to any Mayoral Strategic Authority; and/or (ii) the council or a successor authority or joint body may order services on behalf of other local authorities serving any area within Norfolk's current geographical boundaries.",
