This procurement process is aimed at delivering support services for vulnerable adults, specifically those facing issues such as substance misuse, offending behaviour, and homelessness. Key dates include an engagement end date set for 17th December 2018, with a supplier engagement event scheduled for the same day between 2pm and 4pm at the YMCA in Woolwich, London. The project falls under the social work services with accommodation category, and potential contractors will be required to register interest through the London Tenders e-tendering portal. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in social care and support services, particularly those focused on vulnerable populations. Organisations proficient in housing management, psychological support, substance misuse rehabilitation, and community-based care would be well-suited to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises are encouraged to participate, reflecting the council's commitment to inclusive procurement practices. This initiative not only aims to enhance service provision but also supports local community development, thereby potentially benefiting businesses looking to expand their reach within the social care sector. ## Notice The Royal Borough of Greenwich is seeking to commission a service for the provision of accommodation based support for socially excluded vulnerable adults. The service will be commissioned to support vulnerable adults with these support needs: * Substance misuse * Offending behaviour * Rough Sleeping Clients present with one or more of these primary needs but have a range of co-existing conditions such as: * Mental health * Disability * Chronic/long term illness * Institutionalised * Trauma (abuse) * Sexual exploitation * Care leavers (Adverse Childhood Experience) Clients will normally enter the pathway through an Assessment Centre where they are assessed before being placed in one of the five properties that are dispersed within the community. The service will be delivered from 6 properties (37 units). These properties were provided for this purpose by London and Quadrant Housing Trust and will be managed by the appointed Provider through a management agreement. The properties included in the proposed scheme are: Stage One: Assessment Centres Plumstead Common Road (12 beds and 7 beds) One centre for clients with more complex needs, which provides an initial safe placement for rough sleepers and clients with substance misuse and history of offending with higher levels of need. A comprehensive assessment of the client's needs can be completed and the client supported and assisted to engage with treatment and/or positive activities and to avoid offending and substance abuse. The service will provide 24 hour staffing cover from support staff and concierge (24 hour cover and duty system for the rest of the scheme). The other centre will provide an entry position into the service for clients with substance misuse and history of offending who have lower levels of need and are already engaging with treatment with clear treatment goals and objectives, and who don't require 24 hour onsite support. This centre will also provide step down for clients from the complex needs assessment centre as they progress through the service pathways towards permanent and independent accommodation. The service will provide support staff onsite Monday to Friday with concierge nightly. At the sole discretion of the council, the assessment centre could host a safe seat for a Greenwich resident for a notional period of 5 days accessible throughout the year. This would allow greater flexibility and use of resources through peaks in demand on homeless services. The following properties will be used to move on Service Users from the assessment centre or for those Service Users that can be housed without 24 hour on site or fixed concierge support.
