UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The North East Lincolnshire Borough Council is currently in the planning stage for a significant public procurement process aimed at reshaping the Housing Related Support (HRS) services in the borough. The contract, valued at £7.5 million, covers various social work, housing services, and administrative housing services, offering substantial business prospects in these sectors. Organisations are invited to participate in a preliminary market engagement workshop to contribute insights for future commissioning. The procurement process will focus on developing a more responsive service that aligns with the evolving needs of the community, starting from 1st October 2026 and potentially extending up to 2029. Key dates for engagement include a milestone of 23rd March 2026, with future notices expected by 1st June 2026, indicating strategic opportunities for businesses prepared to engage early.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses in the social work, residential and non-residential property services sectors, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies specialising in housing support, property management, and administrative services would be well-positioned to compete for this contract, contributing innovative solutions for house management and support strategies. The opportunity allows businesses to collaborate closely with the Council in shaping services that could reduce dependency on homelessness provisions, a critical social goal aligned with public interests. The collaborative nature of this tender offers a platform for businesses to demonstrate their expertise and develop ongoing partnerships within the local community.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Preliminary Market Engagement - Shaping the Future of Housing Related Support in North East Lincolnshire (1)

Notice Description

North East Lincolnshire would like to invite your organisation to take part in a collaborative workshop focused on shaping the future of Housing Related Support (HRS) in the borough. This workshop forms part of the second Preliminary Market Engagement event being undertaken by the Authority.. HRS is a short-term support service currently available to local residents, designed to help individuals develop the skills needed to manage their homes effectively, with the long-term aim of reducing reliance on homelessness services. However, we recognise that the current offer may no longer fully reflect the needs of our community. To ensure any future commissioning is informed by local insight and experience, we are bringing together housing and support providers from across North East Lincolnshire to explore what a refreshed HRS offer could look like.
