## Summary

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council is planning to undertake a public procurement process related to the commissioning review of supported accommodation for young individuals aged 16 to 25. This initiative is in the planning stage, with a market engagement exercise scheduled to inform potential suppliers of the forthcoming tender, service requirements, and key dates. A supplier engagement session will be held on 26 August 2026 via Microsoft Teams, which interested parties should register for by 21 August 2026. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically targeting health and social work services, with the contract period expected to commence on 1 February 2027 and conclude on 31 January 2028 in Barnsley, South Yorkshire.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in health and social work services, particularly those that provide accommodations coupled with social care.

Participating in this planning phase could provide businesses with valuable insights into the procurement process, enabling them to better prepare their tenders and potentially secure contracts that drive growth and improve community service offerings. Engaging in the supplier session will allow businesses to clarify any uncertainties and position themselves competitively for the upcoming tender process.
