This contract aims to reshape existing adult service provisions, targeting individuals aged 18 to 65 who experience co-existing mental health issues and substance dependence. The expected contract duration is three years beginning on 1st November 2021, with a budget of up to £1,200,000. Tenders must be submitted by 28th July 2021, and the procurement method is an open procedure under the health and social work services category. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses engaged in health and social care, particularly those specialising in mental health and addiction recovery. Organisations that can demonstrate expertise in dual diagnosis services and recovery-oriented practices would be particularly suited to compete for this contract. The successful bidder will not only provide treatment and support but also manage housing for clients, thereby expanding their services and client base in a vital area of public health. ## Notice Dual diagnosis relates to the co-existence of mental ill health and the problematic use of drugs and/or alcohol. Brent Council wish to reshape the current adult drug and alcohol service provision into a drug, alcohol and Mental Health treatment pathway. This will increase the number of people who are able to sustain long term recovery from dependence by providing individual support and treatment which reduces the harm caused by addiction and dependence. Recovery will be the primary goal of the service. It is therefore imperative that the service as a whole, as well as individual staff, understands the principals of recovery. The service will be for six clients, either male or female aged between 18-65, who have a dual diagnosis and who receive clinical mental health treatment. The service should be staffed, seven days a week, 365 days a year, with two staff on duty at certain times of the day. Single waking night cover should also be provided. The property is owned by a Housing Association and located within the London Borough of Brent. The successful provider will also be expected to undertake the housing management for the property and enter into a housing management agreement with the landlord in addition to the delivery of the support service. The Council wishes to work with providers who can evidence their experience in Dual Diagnosis support provision so that the social care 'Recovery Pathway' is embedded within the service delivery model. The provider of the service does not have to be CQC registered, as they will not be delivering any regulated activity but the successful provider will be expected to support clients through their recovery to enable them to step down into lesser intensive supported living accommodation such as housing related support, within a two year period. The duration of the contracts will be for an initial period of three years, with an option to extend for two years on a one plus one basis. The total budget for the whole contract period will be up to PS1,200,000 The estimated commencement of the services will be 1st November 2021. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bcf3d8e4-ea6e-4e13-9782-87a1ca279824 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Jul 2021 | | Submission deadline | 10 Aug 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Nov 2021 - 31 Oct 2024 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,200,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF BRENT | | Locality | WEMBLEY | | Post town | Harrow | | Postcode | HA9 0FJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI7 Outer London - West and North West | | ITL 3 | TLI72 Brent | | Local authority | Brent | | Electoral ward | Wembley Park | | Westminster constituency | Brent West | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85141210 - Home medical treatment services ## Release History - 12 Jul 2021 at 12:24 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bcf3d8e4-ea6e-4e13-9782-87a1ca279824 - 24 Jun 2021 at 11:38 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4f60d1f5-ed09-4b73-b61e-e1f3beb4a4bf - 24 Jun 2021 at 11:25 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/175c03aa-4935-437f-b5d6-e9ea38451447 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bcf3d8e4-ea6e-4e13-9782-87a1ca279824 12th July 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4f60d1f5-ed09-4b73-b61e-e1f3beb4a4bf 24th June 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/175c03aa-4935-437f-b5d6-e9ea38451447 24th June 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=9fa4022e-66c4-eb11-810c-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.brent.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
