## Summary

The North Somerset Council is currently undertaking a procurement process titled "Open Framework for Emergency Accommodation", aimed at providing emergency accommodation services to homeless households in North Somerset. This procurement falls within the services industry, specifically under the classification of letting services of short-stay furnished accommodation (CPV Code: 55250000). The procurement method is open, with an end date for the tender period set for 14 October 2023. The contract is planned to commence on 15 October 2023 and will run until 16 October 2023. Interested suppliers should be aware that the framework will remain open for new suppliers to join throughout its four-year term, which runs from 15 October 2019 to 14 October 2023.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses looking to expand within the emergency accommodation sector, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). As the contract allows for direct awards under the Light Touch Regime, businesses that are agile and able to provide reliable, quality accommodation services would be well-positioned to compete. Companies with experience in social services or those that specialise in temporary housing solutions in the South West region of the United Kingdom may find this framework particularly beneficial for their growth objectives.
