This contract, with a total value of £3,000,000, is classified under Health and Social Work services, specifically through an open competitive procedure. The tender period is set to close on 16th August 2018, with the contract expected to commence on 5th November 2018 and run for two years until 4th November 2020. Responses are welcomed from providers located in or around the London area, although applications from across the UK are also encouraged. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialised in providing accommodation and support services, particularly those experienced in high, medium, or low support environments. Companies that offer outreach support or those willing to engage in spot purchases for hourly support are also well-suited to participate. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to apply, making this an excellent opportunity for businesses looking to expand in the health and social care sector. ## Notice The required service is Semi-Independent Accommodation and Support provision for 16-25 year old Looked After Children and Care Leavers for the London Borough of Lewisham and Royal Borough of Greenwich. This will be delivered through a Preferred Provider Framework (PPF) structured around three lots: Lot One - Accommodation Plus Support: This lot is for accommodation that is fully compliant with all statutory regulations and health and safety checks, with support in; o High support units: 24 hour staffed units that are shared or standalone; and/or o Medium support units: partially staffed units that are shared or standalone; and/or o Low support units: unstaffed shared or standalone units with outreach included. Lot Two - Accommodation only. This lot is for accommodation that is fully compliant with all statutory regulations and health and safety checks. Lot Three - Outreach support (no provision of accommodation). This lot is for the provision of outreach support. It is open to Service Providers that do not provide accommodation, or are only willing to provide support. This will be a PPF spot-purchase framework for hourly support, quoted for in blocks of 5, 10 and 15 hours and/or at an hourly rate. While the preference for Lewisham and Greenwich will always be to place in or near to our boroughs, we do have need for semi-independence accommodation and support across the country. Providers should identify their operational areas. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/60883587-8b9c-4c39-aab9-e8421657f3e8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Jul 2018 | | Submission deadline | 16 Aug 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 5 Nov 2018 - 4 Nov 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £3,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF LEWISHAM | | Locality | CATFORD | | Post town | South East London | | Postcode | SE6 4RU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI44 Lewisham and Southwark | | Local authority | Lewisham | | Electoral ward | Rushey Green | | Westminster constituency | Lewisham East | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 70 - Real estate services - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 70210000 - Residential property renting or leasing services - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 12 Jul 2018 at 15:05 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/60883587-8b9c-4c39-aab9-e8421657f3e8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/60883587-8b9c-4c39-aab9-e8421657f3e8 12th July 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=7b0a8cc3-6e74-e811-80ed-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.lewisham.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
