Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Camden is currently in the award stage for a contract pertaining to the Rough Sleeping Hub, a service classified under 'social work services with accommodation.' This procurement process aims to extend an existing contract for a 16-bed supported short stay hostel for rough sleepers in Camden with complex needs. The contract, which was initially awarded in September 2022, is set to expire on 31 March 2026, with a proposed extension lasting 12 months starting 1 April 2026. The procurement method used is a limited procedure, specifically an award without prior publication, considered outside the scope of standard directives. As part of this process, a 10-day standstill period has been initiated as of mid-March 2026, after which the contract variation will be executed provided no legal challenges arise.

This tender represents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for organisations experienced in providing social accommodation services with the ability to engage communities and stakeholders effectively. The rough sleeping service, which operates within Camden, is fully backed by the government's Rough Sleeping Initiative grant, reinforcing its stability and offering a secure funding stream for interested partners. Businesses specialising in social work or similar housing services, especially those with large-scale operations, like the appointed supplier, Single Homeless Project, are well-positioned to collaborate successfully on the service's continued development beyond the extension into 2027.
