This procurement process presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs). Businesses specialising in social work services, accommodation provisions, and support services for vulnerable individuals could find this tender to be an attractive venture.
The Council is specifically interested in understanding market capabilities to replace existing support structures expiring in 2026, offering ample scope for innovative solutions and approaches to meet the housing and support needs of vulnerable communities.

The services will provide time limited support to a range of vulnerable people who are in Priority Housing Need, are owed a legal duty by Sheffield City Council and have other support requirements.
