## Summary

Oxford City Council has recently completed the award stage of a procurement process for a "Housing First Support Service" contract. This process, under the category of public authority sub-central government services, focuses on the provision of housing support services including social work services with accommodation. The contract was awarded to Homeless Oxfordshire Limited and will deliver support to 40 individuals in Oxford. This open procedure was finalised on 13th April 2026, with the contract set to commence on 1st July 2026 and run until 30th June 2027, with the possibility of extensions up to 2030. The total contract value awarded is £2,087,390, with services distributed across the region of UKJ14.

This tender offers promising opportunities for businesses in the social work and housing support sectors to engage with regional government contracts. Companies that specialise in housing services or social work, especially those with a focus on supporting vulnerable communities, would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar tenders in this category. With the open procedure methodology, businesses have the opportunity to showcase their capabilities and compete on both quality and price, aligning with Oxford City Council's outlined criteria of 70% quality and 30% price. The re-procurement of such services could attract businesses looking to expand their scope in the public sector, providing vital services to the community while maintaining a strong partnership with public authorities.

## Notice

The Council is re-commissioning the provision of two existing Housing First support service contracts. These contracts currently deliver support to 40 individuals in Oxford with each contract supporting 20 service users. Some of the individuals supported are in accommodation, with some individuals being supported at the pre-tenancy stage. The Council is now re-procuring these Housing First support services as one service, under one contract.
