UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Darlington Borough Council commissioned a supported accommodation placement for an individual identified in the procurement as 375114. The service is classified as health and social work and is delivered in Darlington. The requirement is an accommodation placement rather than a general housing or construction contract, with support forming part of the commissioned service. Jigsaw Recovery Project CIC was selected to provide it. The stated scope is specific to this individual placement; the published details do not describe a wider programme or multiple placements. Suppliers considering comparable work for the council should therefore distinguish this tailored, person-specific supported accommodation from broader housing provision or standalone social care services.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Darlington Borough Council awarded the single placement directly, below the applicable threshold and without competition. Jigsaw Recovery Project CIC was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 16 July 2026 and runs from 16 July to 26 November 2026. Its value is £72,834.60 including tax. The process comprised one lot, covering the placement for the individual identified as 375114. The published procurement details do not set out a separate evaluation basis beyond the direct, non-competitive route; no competitive scoring or comparison of bids is described.

For suppliers of supported accommodation and related health and social care services, this award demonstrates Darlington Borough Council’s use of a direct, below-threshold route for a tailored placement. A credible provider for comparable requirements would need to offer suitable accommodation in Darlington and the capacity to match provision to an individual’s needs, rather than simply supply general housing. The successful supplier was Jigsaw Recovery Project CIC, indicating that a community-interest company can deliver this type of placement for the council. The requirement is individual and short-term in scale, so providers able to mobilise and deliver a focused placement may be better aligned than organisations whose offer is limited to large, standardised accommodation schemes.
