Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hackney is procuring a floating housing support service for Hackney residents with long-term mental health conditions, including learning disabilities and autism. The service will support the existing cohort served by the current provider and accept new referrals from the Mental Health Service. It will also support people aged 18 and over who are leaving care, transitioning to adult services and needing help to maintain independence and avoid homelessness. The specification includes clearer provision for people with learning disabilities and neurodiverse clients, including sensory-informed environments. This is a health and social work service (CPV 85000000), delivered in Hackney. The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

The procurement has reached the tender stage: the buyer invited offers through a selective, competitive flexible procedure. It is a two-stage tender, starting with a Procurement Selection Questionnaire and followed by tender documentation from those progressing. Expressions of interest are due by 17 August 2026 at 12:00, and enquiries close on 14 August 2026 at 17:00. The award decision is due by 10 November 2026. The contract is planned to run from 1 February 2027 to 1 February 2031, with possible one-year extensions in each of the following two years. The estimated value is £1,680,000 excluding VAT and £2,016,000 including VAT. Quality carries 65% and price 35%. Additional work packages of up to 15% of the core contract value are possible, and an electronic auction is included.

This opportunity suits experienced adult social care providers, voluntary, community and social enterprises, and specialist mental health or neuro-inclusive support organisations. Bidders need to demonstrate the technical ability to provide floating housing support for people with long-term mental health conditions, learning disabilities, autism and other neurodiverse needs. Relevant experience should include supporting independence, preventing homelessness, working with existing service users and accepting referrals from mental health services. Providers able to support young adults leaving care as they transition to adult services will also be well placed. The service requires understanding of sensory-informed environments and inclusive practice. Participation requires completion of a Procurement Selection Questionnaire, with economic and technical conditions applying.
