## Summary

Arun District Council engaged a temporary Specialist Compliance Officer to support water hygiene, including Legionella, compliance across the council’s housing stock. The work covers managing contractors, auditing risk assessments and monitoring performance. This is a personnel service rather than a supply of equipment or construction work, and its focus is specialist water-hygiene compliance within social housing. The buyer is Arun District Council, based in Littlehampton; the work concerns the council’s housing stock across its district. Morgan Hunt UK Limited was selected to provide the service.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Arun District Council made a direct award below the applicable threshold without competition. The contract was signed on 13 October 2026 and runs from 27 October 2026 to 27 April 2027. Its value is £40,817.66 excluding VAT (£48,981.19 including VAT). There was one lot, covering the temporary specialist compliance officer service, and it was awarded to Morgan Hunt UK Limited. The award is active; no separate award date or evaluation criteria are stated in the published process information.

For suppliers tracking this buyer’s recurring requirements, the award indicates demand for temporary specialist capacity to oversee Legionella and water-hygiene compliance across a local-authority housing portfolio. A credible competitor would need to provide an officer able to manage contractors, scrutinise risk assessments and monitor service performance, with the practical expertise to support compliance in occupied housing. The requirement is for an individual specialist resource, not a broad facilities-management package, and performance monitoring and audit capability are central to the scope. Morgan Hunt UK Limited, a small or medium-sized supplier, was selected through a below-threshold direct award without competition, showing the route used for this particular engagement; it does not establish that future requirements will follow the same route.
