MHCLG Supported Accommodation Project

Exeter City Council, a sub-central government public authority, has awarded a contract for the "MHCLG Supported Accommodation Project." This project falls within the social work services with accommodation industry category and is located in the UKK4 region, specifically Exeter, United Kingdom. The procurement process was conducted using a direct method, without competition, and the contract was awarded to Exeter City Community Trust.

The contract, valued at £79,000 (gross amount £94,800), was signed on 1st April 2025, with services delivered from 1st April 2025 to 31st July 2025. The contract's status is complete as of 2nd October 2025. This procurement provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in social work services, particularly those capable of delivering housing support for single homeless households and rough sleepers.

Given the targeted nature of the tender, businesses that are small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and involved with community and voluntary sectors, such as Exeter City Community Trust, are well-suited to compete in this area. The focus of the procurement method on direct awards underlines the importance for businesses to establish a strong relationship with contracting authorities and demonstrate their unique capacity to provide specialised services.
