Why this procedure was chosen
The Council intends to award a contract for the provision of care and support services at a supported living scheme for people with complex mental health needs in compliance with the Procurement Act 2023. The supplier, Look Ahead, uniquely owns and controls the property at Brenda Road, which was purchased using its own capital investment and external grant funding. This arrangement follows prior market engagement where providers were invited to propose collaborative solutions to address local service gaps. No other provider can deliver services at this location, meaning competition is absent for technical reasons. The Council will only contract for care and support services (not accommodation). This approach ensures timely delivery of new in-borough provision and leverages significant third-party investment without Council capital funding.
