Summary of the contracting process

Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council commissioned a housing-related floating support service for young people moving from supported accommodation into independent living. The service provides flexible, person-centred help to build independent living skills, sustain tenancies and reduce reliance on statutory services. It is a step-down part of a continuous support pathway, for a cohort linked directly to the existing supported accommodation service, and must align with current care and support arrangements. The work is delivered in Neath Port Talbot, Wales. This is a social support service rather than accommodation provision: the focus is on helping young people live independently while maintaining continuity with their existing support.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Codi Group Ltd. The council used a below-threshold direct award without competition, citing continuity of care, safeguarding risks and operational incompatibility as reasons a competitive process was unsuitable. The contract was signed on 21 October 2026. Its stated period runs from 30 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, with an option to extend for a further 12 months, up to 31 March 2028. The contract value is £55,825 excluding VAT (£66,989.97 including VAT). There is one lot. The service had already commenced on 1 June 2026, so the stated commencement date is later than the start of service delivery.

For providers of housing-related support to young people, this award shows demand for a tailored transition service linked closely to supported accommodation and existing care arrangements. A credible provider would need to deliver flexible, person-centred support that helps young people build practical independent living skills, maintain tenancies and avoid unnecessary reliance on statutory services. The continuity requirement, safeguarding risks and operational fit were central to the buyer’s decision to award directly, so relevant experience working with this cohort and the ability to integrate safely with established support pathways would be important when a comparable requirement returns to this council. The contract is a focused service for a defined group, rather than a broad housing or general social-care requirement.
