Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Southwark has completed a procurement process titled "Tustin Estate Phase 2 Independent Tenant and Leaseholder Advisers," classified under services related to community, social, and personal services. The contract was awarded as of 29th July 2026, following a procurement method involving limited competition below the threshold. Taking place in London, the awarded contract commenced on 14th July 2026 and is set to run until 14th March 2030. The buyer, Southwark Council, sought to provide independent support and facilitate communication between residents and the council, a vital service aiding in community engagement. The legal basis for this process is aligned with the UKPGA 2023/54.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises skilled in community and social services, particularly those capable of offering advisory and communication facilitation services. Newman Francis Ltd, a SME, emerged as the supplier for this contract. Businesses that focus on community consultation, advisory roles, and social welfare services would find similar tenders appealing, allowing them to leverage their expertise in supporting public authorities like Southwark Council in effective resident engagement and service delivery. With a contract value nearing £75,650 (net of taxes), businesses positioned within or near the UK region could enhance their portfolio and reputation by pursuing similar opportunities.
