## Summary

The City of Edinburgh Council has awarded a contract under the framework of the Temporary Accommodation & Associated Services Flexible Purchasing System for the provision of Private Rented Accommodation. The contract, with a completion status, supports general public services by providing accommodation for households in Edinburgh, assessed as homeless.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the Edinburgh region, particularly those involved in property management and social services.

The requirement for a prompt payment clause and adherence to the real Living Wage also encourages ethical business practices, appealing to socially conscious organisations.
