Homelessness Rough Sleepers Initiative (RSI)

Notice Description

The West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) has successfully secured monies under the Rough Sleepers Initiative (RSI) Fund 2020-21 for the West Midlands region. The primary objective of the RSI Fund is to help people sleeping rough off the streets; help those who have moved off the streets to successfully progress away from rough sleeping; and prevent those in crisis, and at imminent risk, from sleeping rough. The WMCA is therefore seeking submissions from relevant organisations to deliver outcomes through the RSI Fund 2020-21 made up of 6 different Lots. The contract for each Lot will be based on the Memorandum of Understanding document.

The tender reference is itt_765 and if you are not already registered on BravoSolution it is free and usually only takes a few minutes to do so. Bids are being assessed on the basis of the evaluation criteria outlined in the Specification document and only those organisations that have answered all of the Standard Selection Questionnaire questions and provided all supporting documents satisfactorily will go on to have their tenders evaluated. Please submit all responses by the tender deadline which is 1700 on Friday 24th April 2020 and the deadline for any clarification questions, also via BravoSolution, is 1200 noon on Monday 20th April 2020.
