The procurement process, initiated via an open procedure, has progressed from planning to contract award, with Julian House, a VCSE and public service mission organisation based in Bath, appointed as the supplier. This process, completed with the award on 20th April 2026, encompassed a multi-stage approach, beginning from a market engagement session in June 2025. The contract commenced on 1st April 2026 and spans three years, with potential extension up to two additional years based on performance and funding availability.

Small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as VCSEs, were encouraged to bid, highlighting Wiltshire Council's commitment to inclusive economic growth by nurturing smaller organisations and those driven by social missions.
