## Summary

The London Borough of Bexley has successfully completed a procurement process for the "Management & Provision of Emergency Temporary Accommodation," focusing on housing services. The tender, valued at £11,346,387, was conducted under a selective procurement method, concluding on 12 March 2019. The contract period is set to run from 13 March 2019 to 31 January 2022, providing urgent accommodation solutions in the London area to meet the increasing demand for housing assistance defined under the 1996 Housing Act.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the housing and accommodation sector, including small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies equipped to offer innovative solutions in managing temporary accommodation or those with properties suitable for housing vulnerable populations would be well-positioned to compete. The growing demand for such services, driven by increasing homelessness in the area, reflects a market ripe for expansion and collaboration with local authorities.

## Notice

The Council has a statutory duty to provide temporary accommodation for those it considers homeless under the 1996 Housing Act. Initially, when a person approaches the council as homeless, they are placed in emergency temporary accommodation, provided they are assessed as being eligible for assistance and in priority need. The London Borough of Bexley makes temporary placements into its own Hostels, recently purchased street properties and through the procurement of shared and self-contained accommodation within the private rented sector. The Housing Service has seen a steady increase in the number of homeless people approaching the council for assistance and a subsequent increase in the number of people placed in temporary accommodation. The current contractual and framework arrangements need to be extended to increase the supply of properties available, in order to be able to meet the increasing demand.
