Summary of the contracting process

The Hampshire County Council has completed the procurement process for the "Hampshire Resettlement Accommodation Preparation Service 2026," a major service project aimed at facilitating the resettlement of individuals and families relocating to Hampshire under various Government Refugee Resettlement programmes. This process involved furnishing and equipping matched properties, including the procurement and setup of white goods, furniture, kitchen and bathroom equipment, and other items. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, with key procurement details including a contract start date of 3rd August 2026 and completion by 2nd August 2030. The anticipated value of the contract is £933,120, specifically focused in the health and social work services category, with project delivery locations across regions UKJ35, UKJ36, and UKJ37. The award stage is pending, with Kayoski Care Limited selected as the supplier, subject to a standstill period ending 8th July 2026. The council is designated under the public authority - sub-central government, and this initiative is anchored within the broader legal remit of the UKPGA 2023 legislation, ensuring compliance and coherence with Government policies.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in the supply and logistics of domestic furnishings and associated services, particularly those SMEs like Kayoski Care Limited, which successfully demonstrated the capacity for swift procurement and localised delivery. The project requires a reliable supply chain for the delivery and maintenance of furniture and other essential items, making it an ideal growth opportunity for businesses specialising in furniture manufacturing, logistics or installation, or those offering broad service delivery capabilities. Additionally, engagement in such high-value contracts under Government initiatives aids in establishing credibility and fosters robust business growth in the public sector service domain. Companies capable of adapting to unpredictable demand volumes and fluctuating requirements due to Government policy adjustments or global political dynamics will be especially well-placed to thrive under this contract.

        "riskDetails": "Limitations of the service provision The Specification covers a broad range of requirements to ensure that the property is suitably prepared for the family which is prescribed by the Home Office. There is a risk that the Home Office may increase or decrease the range of requirements currently set out and this contract may be required to adapt to the Home Office requirements as and when they are published. Unpredictable volumes The actual level of volumes of requirement are difficult to gauge because of the fluctuations of the people arriving into the County requiring the service. It may be that an increase to the budget is required to ensure that the service can meet the level of referrals and deliver a suitable and sustainable service. Inflationary costs There is a risk of impact caused by inflation the service elements required to deliver this service, e.g. for labour, assets, and fuel cost. It may be that an increase to the budget is required to ensure that the service can continue to enable suitable and sustainable service delivery. Change of Government There is a risk that if a new Party is elected into Government that the service requirement will be reduced, increased both in terms of specification and budget. Global Political Climate There is a risk that further political unrest across the globe may require people from backgrounds different to that as currently described in the specification to require these services too. Local Government Reorganisation It is anticipated, that during the life of this contract, the LGR process will commence and/or progress potentially impacting this contract. Impacts may include, but are not limited to, modifications such as a novation of the legal entity you currently contract with, significant increases and/or decreases in the value/volume of services required due to the change in size/scope of the Contracting Authority, and/or changes to the scope of the nature of services required. Although any contract scope changes should broadly relate to the nature of the existing scope, new services of a related nature may be required that were not previously included. The scale and exact timing of the changes are unknown at this point but it is known that LGR will impact the County of Hampshire and the successful supplier will need to be aware and where appropriate, work with the Authority to adapt to any changes/modifications as required to ensure smooth transition and continuity of services."
