This procurement falls under the category of research and development services and related consultancy services, classified by CPV code 73000000. The tender period concluded on 4th December 2017, and the contract, which has a total value of £70,000, is set to commence on 20th December 2017 and run until 31st July 2018. The procurement method selected was a direct tender through a single tender action, indicating it was below the financial threshold, with an expected minimum value of £50,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in consultancy services, particularly those focusing on homelessness prevention, insurance solutions, and social housing. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract due to the eligibility criteria encouraging their participation. By engaging with this project, businesses have a chance to contribute to a pressing social issue while fostering their growth through government partnerships and extended service offerings. ## Notice Local authorities have identified the key causes of increasing numbers of homeless households as rising house prices, rent increases and unaffordable deposits. In London, 2 in 5 households (39%) state loss of a short hold tenancy as the primary reason they have approached the council for help. This, combined with the additional requirements from the Homelessness Reduction Act 2017, has led to councils considering effective methods to prevent the risk of homelessness. The aim of the 'Transition insurance' concept is to establish an insurance scheme for rental deposits, providing a guarantee of the availability of funds to: 1) Transfer deposits between properties hence reducing the risk of a household reaching a point of crisis. 2) Cover the cost of repairs by a landlord to a rental property.
