Summary of the contracting process

Fermanagh and Omagh District Council is commissioning wraparound and financial support for households experiencing poverty or at risk of poverty. The service will operate across the Fermanagh and Omagh District Council area and is intended to provide practical, financial and wider community support to affected households. The requirement is for social and community services, including civic betterment, health and social work, administration and related support from specialist organisations. Additional services may be required during the contract period, depending on available funding and specific requirements. The Council is the buyer and public authority responsible for the procurement. This is a single service requirement covering the full Poverty Support Programme rather than separate service categories.

The procurement has reached tender: Fermanagh and Omagh District Council invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission allowed in English. Enquiries had to be submitted by 28 September 2026 at 12:00, and tenders by 5 October 2026 at 12:00. The award decision was due by 23 October 2026 at 23:59. The contract period is 26 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an option for month-by-month extensions of up to six months, to a maximum date of 30 September 2027. Its estimated value is £227,163 excluding VAT, or £272,595.60 including VAT. Offers are evaluated on quality at 70% and cost at 30%.

This opportunity suits organisations that deliver poverty support, financial guidance, social care, community development or related public services. Strong candidates will be able to provide wraparound support rather than a single narrowly defined intervention, working with households across the Fermanagh and Omagh district. Relevant experience may include assessing household needs, providing practical and financial assistance, connecting people with wider support, and working with communities affected by poverty or at risk of poverty. Suppliers should have the operational capacity to deliver a district-wide service, respond to additional requirements when funding permits, and manage the administration and evidence needed for final reporting. The requirement is particularly relevant to established specialist, voluntary, community, social enterprise and professional service providers with suitable delivery teams and partnership networks.
