Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by the London Borough of Harrow involved awarding a contract titled "Floating Support (Care Leavers)", under the industry category of health and social work services. This procurement, operating under Commissioning Alliance's new Dynamic Purchasing Vehicle for Supported Accommodation, pertains to the region of Harrow, UKI74, United Kingdom. The process reached its award stage on 7th May 2026, with the contract having commenced on 1st April 2026 and expected to run until 31st March 2027. It was conducted through a direct procurement method below threshold, without competition, as detailed under the legal basis UKPGA 2023/54. The total contract value amounts to £68,222 GBP. The awarded supplier is Centrepoint Soho, a large organisation classified under the category of voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE).

This tender presents a growth opportunity for businesses involved in providing health and social work services, especially those specialising in supported accommodation for care leavers. While Centrepoint Soho has secured this specific contract, similar opportunities may arise, particularly for entities with expertise in dynamic purchasing systems within the public sector framework. Organisations looking to expand into municipal-level social care services, especially those engaged with vulnerable populations like care leavers, would find such contracts advantageous. Ventures experienced in collaborating with public authorities, or those affiliated with registered charitable or VCSE roles, can particularly benefit from future tenders announced by the London Borough of Harrow or similar councils.
