## Summary

The Shropshire Council is currently seeking tenders for the project titled "GB-Shrewsbury: AMCV 245 - Housing Advice and Homelessness Prevention". This procurement falls under the "Other community, social and personal services" industry category and will take place in Shrewsbury, West Midlands, UK. The tender process is at the active stage, with submissions closing on 24th April 2018. The contract is set to begin on 1st May 2018, lasting for an initial year, with a potential extension for another year. The total contract value is up to £500,000, with a minimum annual commitment of £102,850. This procurement follows an open procedure method.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to engage in the delivery of vital housing services. Businesses involved in social services, community support, or those with a focus on homelessness prevention would be particularly well-positioned to compete. The contract's emphasis on collaboration with the Council to implement a new service model not only highlights the need for innovative approaches but also promises a meaningful impact on community welfare, making this an attractive opportunity for businesses committed to social causes.

## Notice

The Council wishes to procure a provider to deliver housing advice and homelessness prevention as an extension of the Council's provision and which is delivered in such a way as to better engage with people who may experience social exclusion or who struggle to engage with 'official' services. In addition the provider will be expected to commit sufficient managerial and staff resource to work with the Council's Housing Services to support the successful implementation of a new service model for preventing homelessness and will take a lead role on some aspects of service development in agreement with the Council. This contract will be for an initial period of 1 year from 1st May 2018 with the option to extend the contract for a further period of up to 1 year. A fixed contract value of PS102,850 per annum is available and bidders must be able to demonstrate how they will make the most effective use of that funding in a way that balances service provision with service development in collaboration with the Council. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
