## Summary

The procurement process is being overseen by Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, focusing on a "Supported Living Framework" initiative. This falls within the services category, specifically targeting social work services with accommodation. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice date set for 1 August 2025. The contract is expected to cover the region of UKG36 in the United Kingdom. The contract period is planned from 2 March 2026 to 1 March 2031, with a potential extension to 1 March 2033. Businesses should note that this is a framework agreement under a light-touch regime and is valued at £257 million net, grossing up to £308.4 million.

This opportunity paves the way for substantial business growth for entities specialising in supported living services. Enterprises suited for this tender include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) that can provide tailored support and promote autonomy for individuals. Engaging in this framework could greatly enhance the profile and reach of organisations committed to innovative and person-centred social care solutions, thereby expanding their market presence in the public sector.

## Notice

Supported living is a person-centred approach to housing and support that enables people to live independently within their communities. Unlike traditional residential care settings, supported living promotes autonomy, choice, and inclusion by offering flexible support tailored to each person's preferences and needs in response to the Council's strategic vision.
