The Council currently have one provider delivering independent advice to tenants and other customers. The current contract is anticipated to expire in May 2024. The Council is therefore seeking expressions of interest and engagement with potential bidders, in advance of publishing an Invitation to Tender, for a replacement contract. The Council is anticipating carrying out an Open procurement process, publishing the Invitation to Tender in February 2024. It is anticipated the contract will be awarded for 3 years with an optional extension of up to a further 24 months. The total value of the contract including extension option is anticipated to be 350000.00 GBP (a set budget of 70k GBP pa).

The area encompasses all of the former Clydesdale, Hamilton and East Kilbride Districts and part of the former Glasgow District (mainly Cambuslang and Rutherglen). South Lanarkshire's population is predominately located in urban areas however almost three quarters of the area is rural. This diversity requires flexibility for customer participation to allow customers to participate and become involved in ways that suit them. The provision of independent advice and support is a key element of the current and preceding Customer Involvement Strategies and is essential to facilitate effective customer involvement in policy / service development, implementation and review. Independent advice and support is effective for customer involvement, as this ensures that customers have access to the impartial information necessary to enable them to make up their own minds on important housing matters.
