## Summary

Melton Borough Council has awarded a contract for the lease of four self-contained accommodation units to Cutting-Edge Properties Ltd. The procurement, classified under accommodation services, aims to replace temporary hotel stays with these fully equipped units located in the Melton Borough (UKF22). The contract was awarded through a limited procedure without prior publication and is active as of 29th July 2024. The estimated annual expenditure for the council is £6,770.40, and the contract is intended to be trialled for up to three years, offering significant cost savings and being better suited for emergency housing needs.

This tender provides a substantial growth opportunity for businesses specialising in accommodation and property management services. Companies that can offer similar self-contained units with competitive pricing and terms may find future opportunities in local authority contracts. The focus on short-notice temporary accommodation in Melton Borough suggests that businesses within or near this region and those adept at rapid deployment of accommodation solutions are well-positioned to capitalise on such opportunities. Additionally, the localisation requirement underscores the council's preference for suppliers who can ensure immediate and seamless service provision within the borough.

## Notice

Melton Borough Council (MBC) have been approached by an organisation with an offer to lease 4 units of accommodation as an alternative to temporary hotel accommodation. - The 4 units are self contained meaning they are better equipped for people who need this form of accommodation rather than rooms in guest houses and hotels that have no ability to cook or store food. - The units can be used for single people and for those with a 2 bed need on an emergency basis. - Occupants are given an excluded licence agreement which means they have no rights to the property. - The security and cleaning of the block is facilitated by the company - Flats would be solely used by MBC - Pets are allowed - MBC only pay for times when the units are used and not when they are empty. MBC have over the last 6 months, consistently had on average 10 people in bed and breakfast accommodation. Savings from apartments vs the current hotel type are PS218.50 per household per flat. Over a year this would be estimated to be PS2185 per flat. For 4 flats this would be PS8740 over a year. Income from household for 37 nights in apartments: PS733.20 Total expenditure is expected to be PS2256.80 per annum. Melton Borough Council wish to trial this for a period of up to 3 years.

### Procurement Information

Melton Borough Council does not believe there are any other locally based suppliers able to fully match the offer provided by the proposed supplier. The requirement must be situated within the Melton Borough and provide a saving compared with the current route of temporary hotel accommodation. It is therefore the aim of Melton Borough Council to enter directly into a contract with the propsed supplier.
