## Summary

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) is seeking tenders for the provision of a Dual Diagnosis Service aimed at supporting individuals experiencing rough sleeping, with a focus on mental health and substance misuse issues. The tender was published on 30 March 2022, with a tender submission deadline set for 2 May 2022. This open procurement process facilitates a contract that is meant to commence on 1 July 2022, lasting for a period of nine months, with potential extensions until 31 March 2025. The estimated contract value is approximately £2,198,880, and the contract will cover services across various locations within Greater Manchester, expanding in scope as it progresses.

This tender presents a promising opportunity for businesses in the health and social care sectors, particularly those specialising in mental health and substance misuse support services. Suitable bidders could include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that have the capacity to provide comprehensive support as well as collaboration with local health services. The gradual expansion of the service over the contract period, driven by the needs of the communities, may offer successful bidders additional avenues for growth and service delivery across a wider region.

## Notice

The GMCA are looking for a provider to deliver a comprehensive Dual Diagnosis support service consisting of three strands: *Supporting individuals: supporting people with mental health and/or substance misuse issues by providing brief interventions or by making onward referral to other mental health services and preparing clients for the next step. *Supporting the workforce: work alongside the Local Authority Rough Sleeping Teams and other health services to develop psychologically and trauma informed practice, providing advice and assistance on the best way to support people experiencing homelessness and co-occurring Mental Health and substance misuse issues. *Providing Leadership: influencing change throughout the wider health system by: promoting Inclusion Health principles, generating evidence of interventions and approaches that work well for homeless cohorts and sharing best practice in relevant forums and governance structures. The intended contract commencement date is 1 July 2022, with a contract duration of 9 months, with the option to extend for two further 12 month periods (up to 31st March 2025). Core funding will be provided, subject to the continued receipt of Rough Sleeper Initiative funding and may be subject to change throughout the life of the contract. GMCA is aiming to expand beyond the existing 4 boroughs, with a view to a service which covers that whole of Greater Manchester by Year 3. This process will be gradual over the life of the contract and the contract value is anticipated to increase (subject to RSI funding) as Boroughs take up the service. **** Full Tender documents can be obtained via The Chest www.the-chest.org.uk. ****
