Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf CBC procured supported accommodation at Merthyr Road and Llewellyn Street for adults aged 18 and over with support needs. The service is intended for people assessed as having medium needs through the supported accommodation eligibility process, including needs associated with mental health, alcohol or substance misuse, and offending behaviour. This is a social and community support service, classified under other community, social and personal services. The contracting authority is Rhondda Cynon Taf CBC, a Welsh public authority. Delivery is linked to the Merthyr Road and Llewellyn Street scheme, with the procurement covering accommodation and support for eligible residents rather than a general housing service.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded through a below-threshold direct award without competition under the light-touch regime. One lot was awarded to Hafod, an SME. The contract was signed on 30 March 2026 and runs from 1 April 2026 to 1 April 2029. Its value is £299,250 excluding VAT, or £359,100 including VAT. The award covers the supported accommodation service described above. The selected supplier is Hafod, and the contract is active. The procurement therefore records an established award and contract rather than an opportunity for new bids. The stated route was direct procurement without competition, so the process was not evaluated through a competitive tender.

This requirement is commercially relevant to housing associations, supported-housing providers and social-care organisations able to operate accommodation alongside structured support. A credible provider would need experience supporting adults with medium-level needs, including mental health issues, alcohol or substance misuse, and offending behaviour. It would also need suitable accommodation, referral and eligibility assessment processes, safeguarding arrangements, and staff able to provide consistent support to residents. Hafod’s selection shows that an SME housing or support provider can meet this type of local-authority requirement. Organisations monitoring this buyer should use the scheme as evidence of demand for integrated accommodation and support in Rhondda Cynon Taf, and assess whether they can deliver the same resident-focused service at comparable operational scale.
