What is being bought3 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionThe original UK6 Contract Award Notice (Notice identifier 2026/S 000-027015), published on 24 March 2026, stated that Lot 2 - Young People's Supported Accommodation - Mixed Support and Lot 3 Assessment Services would not be awarded. At the time of publication, Lot 3 Assessment services remained subject to internal governance, while approval had been obtained for lot 1 Mixed/High.
Due to limitations within Find a Tender, it was not possible to indicate that Lot 3 Assessment Services was pending approval while publishing award details for Lot 1 Mixed/High Support. As a result, the notice stated that Lot 2 Mixed Support and Lot 3 Assessment Service would not be awarded. Now that the governance has been completed, LB Camden wish to publish this revised contract award notice.

Please note that we are not terminating the contract award for Lot 1 - Young People's Supported Accommodation - Mixed/High Support. This contract will be signed. The original UK6 Contract Award Notice (Notice identifier 2026/S 000-027015), published on 24 March 2026, stated that Lot 2 - Young People's Supported Accommodation - Mixed and Lot 3 Assessment Services would not be awarded. At the time of publication, lot 3 Assessment remained subject to internal governance, while approval had been obtained for lot 1 Mixed/High Support. No contract award was made for lot 2 - Mixed Support Due to limitations within Find a Tender, it was not possible to indicate that Lot 3 Assessment Services was pending approval while publishing award details for lot 1 Mixed/High Support. As a result, the notice stated that Lot 2 and lot 3 would not be awarded. Now that the governance has been completed, LB Camden, as the contracting authority, intends to publish a NEW UK6 Contract Award Notice covering all three lots, including lot 2 Mixed support, which will not be awarded.
