Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council commissioned a working women’s outreach worker for its Housing First support services. This is a specialist health and social work service, combining outreach with support for women receiving Housing First provision. The work is in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area. The stated service title and description identify the focus as an outreach worker for working women; no further service tasks are set out in the procurement information.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The council used a direct award below the threshold without competition. St Mungo’s was selected as supplier, and the contract was signed on 25 March 2026. The contract runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 October 2028, with a gross value of £74,209. The procurement was a single lot. The published information does not set out an evaluation basis or participation criteria.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers would need to deliver specialist outreach for working women within Housing First support services in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area. Relevant experience in health and social work, community support and working with women would align with the stated service focus. The award to St Mungo’s, a large voluntary, community and social enterprise, shows that a substantial specialist organisation delivered the service, although the procurement does not describe particular qualifications, accreditations, staffing levels or operating methods. Suppliers assessing similar work for this council should therefore focus on demonstrating a proven ability to provide the outreach and support service itself, and experience delivering comparable community-based provision.
