## Summary

The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames has concluded the procurement process for the "Target Priority Group Support Service," aimed at delivering a stabilisation space for high impact, change-resistant rough sleepers, particularly those identified as part of the UK's Target Priority Group (TPG). The procurement was conducted via an open method and classified under the light touch regime, focusing on social work services with accommodation. Initiated in the planning stage in November 2025, the procurement reached its award stage by July 2026. A significant date to note is the contract start date of 1st September 2026, extending through to the end of August 2027. The awarded contract, valued at £450,000, involved a competitive bidding process concluded with the YMCA St. Paul's Group as the supplier.

This tender represents a targeted opportunity for businesses experienced in social services, particularly those that can provide stabilisation and support for rough sleepers. Organisations specialising in social work or with a focus on the homelessness sector might find this tender particularly relevant. Given that multiple bids were submitted, including from SMEs and VCSEs, the procurement process was inclusively designed to encourage participation from a diverse range of suppliers.
