The tender involves a soft market assessment to gauge interest in providing settled accommodation services in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The engagement end date for this tender is set for December 15, 2023. Interested parties can participate by submitting their responses by the specified deadline. This tender by Cornwall Council presents an opportunity for businesses operating in the voluntary, charity, social lettings, independent, and private sectors to showcase their capabilities in providing settled accommodation services. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are particularly encouraged to participate. The soft market assessment aims to inform the Council's business proposal development, with no commercial commitment at this stage, ensuring suppliers' participation will not affect future procurement opportunities. ## Notice Cornwall Council is conducting a soft market assessment to gain an understanding of the potential level of interest across the Voluntary, charity, social lettings, Independent and private sectors for the provision of settled accommodation through Assured Short-hold tenancy between tenants and private landlords. The clients for these services would be those in temporary accommodation, owed a prevention, relief duty, rough sleepers and former rough sleepers. As well as those who are threatened with homelessness under notice. It is intended that the responses supplied will enable the Council to develop a business proposal. Any such proposal would be subject to the development and approval of a business case, and, as such, this exercise implies no commercial commitment. This is not a formal tender document. Participation of this soft market assessment will not prejudice suppliers participating in any future procurement.
