## Summary

West Northamptonshire Council has concluded the procurement process for the Supported Housing Needs Assessment, a tender aimed at developing a comprehensive strategy to address local housing needs under the Supported Housing (Regulatory Oversight) Act 2023. The procurement utilised an open competition method below the threshold, focusing on the services industry and valued at £54,810. The award phase was completed on 20th May 2026, with the contract actively spanning from 20th April to 20th August 2026. The initiative targets delivery in Northamptonshire, UK, and forms part of the Council's statutory obligations, supporting various community cohorts by the mandated deadline of 31st March 2027.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for SMEs within the housing services sector. The tender was awarded to PRIVATE PUBLIC LTD, attesting to the potential for smaller enterprises to secure public contracts by providing specialised services and consultancy, particularly in supported housing and community service sectors. Businesses equipped with expertise in dealing with groups such as older adults, individuals with disabilities, and homelessness solutions stand to benefit significantly from participating in similar future tenders. Engaging in this process allows enterprises to collaborate in societal contributions while enhancing their service portfolios and gaining experience in governmental contracts.
