Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process conducted by South Lanarkshire Council involves the awarding of a contract titled "First Stop Supported Accommodation" within the general public services industry category. The location of the service is within the UKM95 region, specifically the Rutherglen/Cambuslang area. The process reached the award and contract stage with the contract being signed on 1st April 2025. The procurement method employed was a limited award procedure, justified by the unique capability of the selected supplier under technical reasons, without prior publication of a call for competition.

This tender presents opportunities mainly for large-scale organisations specialising in the provision of emergency accommodation and homelessness services, given the specialised nature of the service and the procurement method. It is highly suited for enterprises with the capacity to offer comprehensive and immediate support solutions in the homelessness sector, similar to the Salvation Army Trustee Company, which has been awarded the contract. Businesses that can demonstrate unique skills or ownership of relevant assets would find such procurement opportunities advantageous for establishing long-term partnerships with regional authorities.
