Summary of the contracting process

Southampton City Council established a framework for supplying emergency and interim accommodation for people experiencing homelessness. The requirement covers two accommodation types: houses in multiple occupation (HMO) properties and self-contained properties. Services are to be provided within the Southampton area. This is accommodation provision rather than construction or general property maintenance, so relevant suppliers are organisations able to source, manage and make suitable residential units available for council use. The framework is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. It concerns accommodation services, classified under CPV 98341000, and is a service procurement led by Southampton City Council.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 17 March 2026 through an open procedure. It has two lots, each with an estimated value of £6,000,000 excluding VAT and £7,200,000 including VAT. Lot 1 covers HMO properties and Lot 2 self-contained properties. Both lots were evaluated on an equal 50% price and 50% quality basis. Each lot was awarded to a panel of suppliers: 14 suppliers for Lot 1 and 22 for Lot 2. The framework contracts were signed on 14 February 2026 and run to 13 February 2028, with renewal options of one year plus one year, potentially extending to 13 February 2030. Call-offs may be made by direct award using the ranked order established at framework award stage.

This opportunity demonstrates sustained council demand for emergency and interim accommodation in Southampton, with separate routes for HMO and self-contained housing. A credible future supplier would need access to suitable residential properties in the Southampton area, the ability to source and manage accommodation, and operational capacity to support placements for people experiencing homelessness. The award attracted a broad field of property, housing, accommodation, care and staffing businesses, including many SMEs, showing that delivery can involve specialist local providers as well as larger housing operators. Suppliers should be able to evidence reliable property availability, appropriate accommodation standards, responsive management and consistent service quality, alongside competitive pricing. Quality mattered as much as price in the evaluation, so low cost alone would not demonstrate competitiveness.
