Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Gloucestershire County Council involves the "Refugee Accommodation Based Support" contract, primarily categorised under "Other community, social and personal services" (CPV code: 98000000). The location for this service is set in the region of UKK13, and the procurement involves the provision of low support accommodation for refugees who have been granted leave to remain and are at risk of rough sleeping. This process has reached the award stage, with critical updates occurring as recently as 9th January 2026. The contract has been awarded to "Caring for Communities and People" and began as a six-month extension signed on 21st October 2025, valued at £104,720.

This tender provides significant business opportunities for service providers specialising in social services, particularly those capable of offering accommodation-based support to at-risk communities. The procurement was conducted via a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, highlighting an opportunity for businesses already registered with the council to secure contracts through direct awards. Large-scale organisations, such as the awarded "Caring for Communities and People," are well-suited to engage in such contracts, particularly those with a focus on community-driven and social welfare projects. Companies seeking to expand their government contracting portfolio in the service sector of social support would find this an advantageous opportunity.
