What changed
The Royal Borough of Greenwich has published a contract award notice under the Procurement Act 2023 for accommodation-based support services targeting young people aged 16-24, including care leavers and Children In Our Care. The contract was awarded via direct award procedure to Single Homeless Project, a VCSE and SME, for £1,807,839 (including VAT) over approximately 10 months.
Affected suppliers and contracting authorities should note this represents a direct award justification under the Light Touch regime, with continuity of statutory services cited as the rationale. While this contract is for an existing service period ending February 2027, a fully compliant procurement for a new contract is anticipated to go live in summer 2026 — meaning suppliers should monitor for future competitive tender opportunities in this service area.
