The Service to be procured from the proposed contract is classified under Schedule 3 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as "Provision of services to the community".

The service is designed as an interim arrangement for clients that have already undergone assessment; to sustain a low threshold accommodation model for rough sleepers until such a time as move on accommodation becomes available. Target stay is 12 weeks but can be flexed due to need. The primary focus of the service will be supporting clients with steps needed to achieve their move on successfully. There will be an equal 7 / 7 / 7 split of bedspaces between the tri-borough with placements offered on a "like for like" basis to ensure parity. However, LA leads can agree to override this to prevent any void losses and any such decision will be communicated clearly Move on is to be identified by the referring borough but also sourced by the support service.
