## Summary

The Oxfordshire County Council is currently inviting tenders for the "Mental Health Housing and Intensive Support Service - Pilot Project," aimed at addressing the needs of individuals with serious mental illnesses who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Classified under the health and social work services category, this procurement process is being conducted through an open procedure, with the tender period ending on 11th January 2021. The service will commence on 1st April 2021 and will run until 30th June 2022. The project’s estimated contract value is between £45,000 and £65,000, with delivery addresses spanning various locations, including the United Kingdom and British Overseas Territories.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the health and social care sectors, particularly those specialising in support services for vulnerable populations. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and Voluntary Community Social Enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to compete given the focus on personalised support for individuals facing multiple complexities. Firms capable of effectively demonstrating a track record in housing solutions and tailored case management will likely find this contract aligns with their business strengths and goals for growth.

## Notice

The overall approach for Housing First is to provide a stable, independent home and intensive personalised support and case management to people with multiple complex needs who have experienced homelessness and are at risk of rough sleeping and who have faced multiple exclusions. The accommodation will be offered to individuals who have been identified as homeless or at risk of homelessness with a serious mental illness including those with histories of entrenched or repeat homelessness. The overall purpose of the Service is to provide an alternative supported accommodation option for people where alternative options for accommodation have not worked. For example, they have not been able to thrive in an environment with multiple occupancy and for those individuals who have a history of circling housing and health systems and returning back on to the streets. The service will provide a tailored and personalised support package for each individual in the accommodation to enable successful maintenance of their tenancies.
