UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council commissioned dispersed, low-level supported accommodation services for vulnerable people. The requirement covers nine units in Beddau and Rhondda for young people aged 16–24, vulnerable single parents and women aged 18 or over, plus six units for young people aged 16–24 through the Bridget Project. The service is classified as other community, social and personal services (CPV 98000000). Delivery is in the Beddau and Rhondda area of Wales. The buyer is a Welsh local authority, and the requirement sits within the light-touch regime for social and community services. It is a single service requirement covering supported housing provision rather than construction, property maintenance or general accommodation supply.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Stori. The council used a direct below-threshold procedure without competition under the light-touch regime. The contract was signed on 27 March 2026 and runs from 1 April 2026 to 1 April 2029. Its value is £241,992.50 excluding VAT, or £290,391 including VAT. One lot was awarded, covering the full supported accommodation requirement. Stori is the selected supplier and the contract is active. The published outcome identifies the service category and the successful supplier; it does not set out a competitive tender evaluation or scored award basis because the contract was awarded without competition. The procurement status is complete.

This outcome indicates demand for specialist supported accommodation delivered across Beddau and Rhondda, with capacity for young people aged 16–24, vulnerable single parents and women aged 18 or over. A credible future supplier would need to operate dispersed housing and provide low-level support suited to people with different vulnerabilities, including young people and single-parent households. Relevant capability is likely to include managing several accommodation units, coordinating placements and support, safeguarding residents, and working with a local authority in a community setting. The requirement is substantial enough to cover 15 units across the named services, while remaining below the threshold and suitable for a focused specialist provider. Stori’s selection shows that an experienced social accommodation organisation can meet this type of local-authority requirement.
