Summary of the contracting process

Darlington Borough Council has completed the procurement process for the "Children's Supported Accommodation Placement ID 5567655," a tender in the health and social work services category. The contract, under the legal framework of the UKPA's 2023/54 legislation, was awarded without competition through a direct procurement method, as classified under a "light touch" regime. The award was made on 27th June 2025, and the contract runs until 19th May 2026. The project is located in the UKC13 region of the United Kingdom, specifically in Darlington. The main supplier for this contract is ROC SOLID, a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in Newton Aycliffe.

This procurement offers significant business growth opportunities, primarily for SMEs involved in health and social care sectors. Companies specialising in supported accommodations for children's services would be particularly suitable for similar future tenders. The direct award process highlights opportunities for vendors that can meet urgent needs efficiently without a full competitive bidding process. Businesses with innovative approaches to health and social services can benefit from engaging with sub-central government bodies, such as Darlington Borough Council, to secure projects within their locality or target niche service areas.
