Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead sought a housing management partner for John West House, an Authority-owned hostel in Maidenhead. The converted industrial unit provides accommodation for seven rough sleepers and 12 people owed mainstream homelessness duties. The requirement is for housing services and covers the management and operation of this accommodation facility, with the partner paid a fixed fee rather than receiving a concession. The service is delivered at John West House in Maidenhead. The property was refurbished and replanned from its previous configuration before being commissioned. This opportunity is therefore relevant to organisations experienced in managing supported, temporary or homelessness accommodation, particularly those able to work with residents with differing housing needs and operate an Authority-owned hostel facility.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure, and the procurement reached tender before being cancelled on 22 September 2026; no reason for cancellation is stated. The enquiry deadline was 3 July 2026 at 13:00 and the tender submission deadline was 24 July 2026 at 13:00. The anticipated award decision date was 2 December 2026. The contract was planned to run from 30 April 2027 to 30 April 2030, with an option to extend by one year to 30 April 2031. Its estimated value was £1,940,000 excluding VAT, or £2,328,000 including VAT. The sole lot was evaluated on a 50% technical quality and 50% price basis. Economic and technical conditions of participation applied, and the Authority could pay for reasonable repairs during the contract.

The requirement suits housing management providers with practical experience of running hostel or homelessness accommodation and supporting both rough sleepers and people placed under mainstream homelessness duties. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate the economic and technical capacity required by the conditions of participation, answer the Authority’s technical questionnaire and provide a clear pricing schedule. Strong candidates are likely to have teams able to manage day-to-day hostel operations, resident needs, housing-related support interfaces, property issues and liaison with a local authority. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises, so specialist smaller providers and mission-led organisations could compete alongside larger housing management businesses. Providers also needed to accommodate responsibilities for reasonable repairs within their service approach.
