## Summary

Bristol City Council commissioned a rough sleeping prevention service in Bristol. The service is intended to prevent or minimise rough sleeping among people who are new to rough sleeping or at imminent risk of sleeping on the streets. It includes practical support to help people secure sustainable accommodation away from the streets, or to reconnect them with another suitable place. This is a public service contract covering housing, health and social work services. The council is the buyer and the work is focused on people experiencing, or at immediate risk of, rough sleeping in Bristol. The requirement is therefore relevant to organisations providing homelessness prevention, housing support, outreach, accommodation pathways or related health and social care services.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to St Mungo’s. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the light-touch regime. The contract was signed on 31 March 2026 and runs from 1 April 2026 to 30 September 2026. Its gross value is £253,998. The award covers one service lot and the contract is active. The published outcome identifies St Mungo’s as the supplier selected for the full requirement. The evaluation route was therefore a non-competitive direct award rather than an open tender, with the procurement treated as a below-threshold service opportunity. Bristol City Council’s purchase provides a clear example of its commissioning approach for rough sleeping prevention and accommodation support.

This procurement is commercially relevant to established homelessness and supported-housing providers with the ability to work directly with people who are new to rough sleeping or at immediate risk. A credible future competitor would need practical prevention and outreach capability, strong links with accommodation providers, and the ability to support sustainable move-on arrangements or reconnection to suitable alternatives. Experience across housing, health and social work services would be relevant to the integrated nature of the requirement. The award also shows that Bristol City Council uses a specialist voluntary, community and social enterprise provider for this service. Organisations seeking comparable work should therefore be able to demonstrate reliable frontline delivery, safeguarding and referral arrangements, and capacity to manage support across Bristol.
