Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by the City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council focused on extending the Homeless Outreach Partnership (HOP) 3. The initiative falls under the industry category of social work services, aimed at continuing the Rough Sleeping Navigator Service. The direct procurement method applied was below threshold, conducted without competition, classified under a 'light touch' regime. The contracting stage was at award and contract levels by 19 March 2026, covering services within the Bradford region (UKE41), United Kingdom. The council's procurement process aligns closely with the government's goals of addressing homelessness, specifically rough sleeping.

This contract offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in social services, especially those with expertise in homelessness assistance. With the awarded contract's value at £40,224 gross over a brief period, businesses capable of providing persistent support to rough sleepers will find this project economically and socially rewarding. Horton Housing Support Limited, a large organisation and voluntary community social enterprise (VCSE), was selected as the supplier. Enterprises with the capacity to align with government funding and service continuity objectives will be very well-suited to compete for similar opportunities in the future.

Homeless Outreach Partnership (HOP) 3

Notice Description

This procurement concerns extending the existing Rough Sleeping Navigator Service, funded by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government since 2019 to support the Government's aim of ending rough sleeping. The Navigator posts, created in 2020 through grant funding, provide the initial response to people sleeping rough and work intensively with the wider team and partner organisations to deliver sustained support. An extension is required to maintain continuity and meet ongoing funding and service delivery commitments.
