Summary of the contracting process

South Tyneside Borough Council has recently concluded the procurement process for a contract titled "Floating Housing Related Support for Adults with Mental Ill Health." Categorised under health and social work services, this contract addresses the urgent need to provide housing support to nine adults affected by mental ill health in the South Tyneside region.

This procurement followed a limited competition under the Procurement Act 2023, particularly the light touch regime, due to the incumbent provider's termination effective 30 September 2025. The process has moved from tendering to award, with key commencement expected on 1 October 2025 and completion by 31 March 2027. The awarded contract was signed on 22 August 2025.

Suitable candidates would be providers already operating within South Tyneside, with experience in delivering targeted support to adults with complex health needs. Large-scale organisations and those identified as VCSE (Voluntary, Community, and Social Enterprise) are particularly well-placed to compete, as evidenced by The Cyrenians Ltd, operating as Changing Lives, securing the contract. Such collaborations ensure both service delivery alignment and support for community engagement.

About this tender

The service to be delivered is floating housing related support to 9 adults with mental ill health needs. The need for this service has arisen due to the incumbent provider terminating their contract with the council effective 30 September 2025.

Due to the urgency to provide an alternative service, the council is only inviting suitably qualified providers of housing related support services currently operating in South Tyneside and who have expressed an interest in delivering this service. This quotation is being undertaken under the Procurement Act 2023 and is a light touch below-threshold contract.
