UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council commissioned a refreshed Supported Housing Need Assessment service. The work is to assess the current supply of supported accommodation and projected demand within the council’s area, supporting compliance with the Supported Housing (Regulatory Oversight) Act 2023. Its findings will inform the content of the Stockton-on-Tees Supported Housing Strategy. This is a professional housing consultancy service rather than construction, accommodation provision or general housing management. The procurement was for one requirement, delivered in the Stockton-on-Tees area. The relevant service category is housing services. The council is a sub-central public authority and the requirement relates specifically to understanding supported housing need and shaping local strategic provision.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Housing LIN Ltd, an SME, was selected as the supplier for the single requirement. The award was made on 22 June 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 22 June 2026 to 22 September 2026. Its value is £30,000 excluding VAT, or £36,000 including VAT. The contract is active. The requirement was evaluated through the limited competition route, and the published outcome identifies Housing LIN Ltd as the awarded supplier. The procurement was conducted under the Supported Housing (Regulatory Oversight) Act 2023 context, with the assessment intended to support the council’s statutory and strategic housing responsibilities.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council for specialist supported housing research and consultancy. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would understand supported accommodation, housing needs assessment, local authority commissioning and the relationship between current supply, projected demand and strategic planning. Credible competitors would need to turn evidence about housing need into a clear assessment that a council can use for regulatory compliance and to develop or refresh a supported housing strategy. Experience working with local authorities and analysing supported housing markets would be directly relevant. The requirement also indicates a relatively focused consultancy assignment, suited to a specialist housing research organisation or SME with the capacity to deliver a concise, evidence-based assessment for one council area.
