Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council has awarded a contract for the provision of housing support services to The Salvation Army, aimed at assisting homeless individuals across two hostels in Dundee. This contracting process is classified under the Social Care industry category and follows a limited procurement method. The procurement was undertaken without prior publication of a call for competition, as it involves a previously awarded specialist service provision, now continued on a rolling contract. The contract, identified as HSCP/2425/70, is valued at £506,805 and was signed on 1st April 2024, marking a completion status in the award stage. The process mainly involves regional activities located in Dundee, part of the UKM71 region.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in social care and housing support services. Given the nature of the services provided, large-scale organisations or those experienced in running operations similar to The Salvation Army's hostel support would be well-suited to compete in future procurements. The absence of competition and a direct award in this instance suggest that entities with established service records and specialised capabilities in homeless support are favoured. Businesses looking to engage with local authorities in projects targeting social welfare and community support might find this line of work aligns with their growth strategies.
