Summary of the contracting process

The York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority has conducted an open procurement process titled "Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Prevention Research" aimed at developing their evidence base and strategic plan in this area. This tender, which falls under the services category, was part of a below-threshold open competition and involved research consultancy services. The geographical focus for this initiative is the United Kingdom, specifically the York and North Yorkshire region (UKE). Initially tendered in March 2026, the process has now reached the award stage, with the contract running from 18 May 2026 to 18 November 2026, and an option to extend until February 2027. The supplier awarded the contract is Economic Research Services Limited.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in research consultancy, particularly those specialising in public sector services and social research. Companies with expertise in data analysis, policy research, and developing strategic plans for governmental bodies would find themselves well-suited to such contracts. The open procurement method and emphasis on a quality-based selection criterion, with a significant weight on the quality of service provision (80% of the evaluation), make this an attractive proposition for medium to large-sized enterprises, especially those able to demonstrate innovation and experience in tackling homelessness and related social issues. Moreover, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSE) are encouraged to participate, expanding chances for diverse business growth.
