Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
Sunderland City Council is overseeing a procurement process titled "Supported Accommodation for Young People aged 16 to 21 Years" within the social work services industry category. This involves the provision of accommodation schemes for young people in shared or group living environments across the North East, United Kingdom. The process is in the Award stage, following its initiation as a tender, and involves contracts worth £5 million GBP with the contract period running from 1 June 2025 to 31 May 2028.
The procurement follows an open procedure exceeding the threshold, with key dates including the tender's publication on 28 November 2024 and the tender period ending on 14 January 2025. This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, especially within the social work services sector. Well-suited businesses include SMEs and VCSE organisations capable of managing supported accommodation for young people.
The process allows bidders to submit up to four offers under different lots but limits contracts won to a maximum of two schemes per bidder, which encourages competitive participation and business scalability. Awarded suppliers include Gentoo Group, The Cyrenians (T/A Changing Lives), and YMCA Wearside Ltd, indicating that organisations with experience in large-scale operations in Tyne & Wear are preferred candidates for such contracts.
Together for Children are seeking to award multiple contracts (Accommodation Schemes) for the provision of Supported Accommodation for Young People Aged 16 - 21 Years for Shared or Group Living. A bidder can submit multiple offers for Accommodation Schemes (up to four) but can only win a maximum of two Accommodation Schemes* For each Accommodation Scheme a bidder submits, they must submit a bid under the following lots: Lot 1 - Accommodation Scheme 1 Lot 2 - Accommodation Scheme 2 Lot 3 - Accommodation Scheme 3 Lot 4 - Accommodation Scheme 4 For the avoidance of doubt, if a bidder chooses to submit one accommodation scheme offer, they must only submit a bid under Lot 1, if a bidder chooses to submit two accommodation scheme offers, they must only submit a bid on Lot 1 and Lot 2 and so on. *Please ensure you read the Contract Details and instructions in full for the evaluation and award criteria.
