Summary of the contracting process

Falkirk Council has completed the procurement process for establishing a framework to provide Temporary Emergency Accommodation services. This process, identified by the ocid "ocds-h6vhtk-069dcb," was conducted using an open procedure under legal basis CELEX 32014L0024. This framework aims to secure bed and breakfast style accommodations within a 30-mile radius of West Bridge Street, Falkirk. The procurement falls under the services category related to bed and breakfast establishments. The award date was 31 March 2026, with contracts being awarded to local SMEs: TLK Trading Ltd, Stirling Alba Ltd, and Metro Motels Ltd. The framework is active for two years with an optional one-year extension, focusing on emergency housing for individuals facing homelessness.

This framework presents substantial business growth opportunities for local accommodation providers, especially those capable of offering emergency accommodation services tailored to individuals and households with complex needs. Businesses with experience in providing safe, fully furnished rooms and managing the varying requirements associated with temporary housing, such as accommodating individuals with trauma or mental health issues, would find this opportunity well-suited. With a room rate ceiling of GBP 100 per night inclusive of all essential utilities, accommodation providers meeting these criteria can leverage this procurement to expand their clientele and strengthen their community service offerings. Furthermore, as part of the framework agreement, the opportunity remains open to new entrants, allowing room for future business development.
