## Summary

South Lanarkshire Council, based in Hamilton, UK, is the buying organisation for a public procurement process seeking a service provider for their initiative titled "Support for First Stop Emergency Access Accommodation." The procurement falls under the industry category of "Housing and community amenities." The chosen supplier, Right There, will deliver temporary accommodation services at the new site on Clydesdale Street, ensuring 24-hour staffing and no lone working, aiming to meet statutory obligations for homeless individuals requiring emergency shelter. As of June 2026, the procurement has completed with a contract value of £513,779, and the tender was conducted through an open procedure, with the procurement stage now being at the contract stage, signed on 30 April 2026.

The open procurement method offered transparency and equal competition, encouraging participation from various service providers. Companies experienced in managing vulnerable groups and adhering to regulations such as the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act would have been well-suited to compete, as the council required substantial community benefits and technical expertise.
