Lot Information
Lot 1
Islington Council will be looking for a suitable supplier to provide an assertive outreach service that engages with those who are sleeping rough to support them into services away from the street, which is the crucial first stage in getting people into a supportive pathway. This service will adopt features such as outreach shifts that correspond with patterns of rough sleeping in Islington (for example regular early morning sessions) and personalised approaches focussed on client need. The outreach service will work in a multi-disciplinary approach with specialist teams such as mental health nurses, drug and alcohol services, and the police. Islington Council will also gather data from the street and use it to influence the operation of all other services downstream. The outreach service will ensure the council's commitment to eliminate rough sleeping can take place through a holistic approach to meeting the needs of people who are sleeping on the streets of Islington. A procurement strategy was approved by the Corporate Director of Homes and Neighbourhoods in February 2022. The Council is seeking confirmation of funding requested from the Department of Levelling Up, Housing & Communities (DLUHC) via its rough sleeper initiative grant. The intention is to procure a contract for two (2) years, with the option to extend for up to two (2) years, with a further option to extend for up to two (2) years. These extensions will be subject to available funding and the satisfactory performance of the provider. The strategy that was approved outlined the criteria that will be used to determine the most economically advantageous offer. The proposed award criteria are: Cost - maximisation of available budget 10% Quality - 90% made up of: Proposed approach to delivering a homeless outreach service 20% Proposed approach to adding social value 20% Proposed approach to working with people with multiple and complex needs 10% Proposed approach to employee relations 10% Proposed approach to tackling homelessness at a strategic level 10% Proposed approach to those with no local connections 5% Proposed approach to no recourse to public funds 5% Proposed approach to partnership working 5% Proposed approach to information capture and sharing 5% The contract notice will be published on the e-tendering system used by Islington Council, the London Tenders Portal (ProContract). You will need to be registered on the portal in order to have access to the tender documents when they are published.
