UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Greenwich has successfully completed a public procurement process for a "Housing Support Contract for Socially Excluded Adults". This procurement, which falls under the services category of social work services, aims to provide supported accommodation and resettlement pathways for vulnerable adults including ex-offenders, individuals with substance misuse issues, and rough sleepers. Located in London, specifically in the UKI51 region, this process involved a direct procurement method below threshold, thus bypassing competitive bidding. The contract was awarded to THAMES REACH CHARITY and spans from 21st May 2026 to 28th February 2027. The initiative is classified under a light-touch regime, given its socio-economic impact.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in social care and housing support, particularly those experienced in working with socially excluded groups. Enterprises capable of providing tailored support services can significantly benefit from participation in such contracts. The current collaboration with THAMES REACH CHARITY highlights the opportunity for large-scale organisations, especially those with a charitable orientation or experience as a voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE), to engage in transformative social work that aligns with governmental and public sector objectives. Businesses capable of offering innovative solutions in social housing could find substantial growth prospects by engaging in similar future opportunities with local authorities like the Royal Borough of Greenwich.
