The project, funded under the Greater London Authority's 2022-2025 Single Homelessness Accommodation Programme (SHAP), aims to offer 19 self-contained studio flats in a newly refurbished building in Islington, with 50% of the beds available to North London partners (Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey, and Westminster City Council). The procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with the deadline for submissions set for 25th November 2024. The contract is expected to commence on 23rd June 2025 and conclude on 31st March 2028. The industry category for this tender is Health and Social Work Services (CPV: 85000000). This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses, specifically those with experience in running specialist support services for vulnerable populations. Companies adept at creating Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE) and capable of delivering 24-hour support through skilled and knowledgeable staff will find this contract particularly relevant. The project offers the potential for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to expand their operations and make a meaningful impact on addressing homelessness in the region. The successful bidder will need to demonstrate the ability to provide comprehensive support services, including health, drug and alcohol support, tenancy management, and life skills training. ## Notice The Council is seeking to procure a specialist support provider, with a demonstrable successful track record of running similar services, to provide high-level accommodation-based support for residents with a history of rough sleeping who also have multiple and complex needs. The service provider will be based onsite offering 24-hour cover, including waking night support. They will have experience of creating Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE) with the requisite support systems in place to enable residents to thrive and the service to achieve positive outcomes. The project is being supported through the Greater London Authority's 2022-2025 Single Homelessness Accommodation Programme (SHAP), with both capital and revenue funding secured. It is intended to act as next stage move on accommodation from a number of existing short stay services to help address rough sleeping and homelessness not only within in Islington, but also the wider sub-region, with 50% of the beds being made available to our North London partners (London Boroughs of Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey and Westminster City Council) for the period of the revenue grant availability. The accommodation will be 19 self-contained studio flats in a newly refurbished building owned by Islington Council. It will specifically seek to provide a 'bridge' from rough sleeping and living in shared supported emergency accommodation and first stage hostels, towards independent living, offering support to enable residents to acquire the skills and resilience needed to move on positively. This project will offer residents an 18 - 24 month stay, supporting them to link in with personalised support relevant to their respective needs/goals and will support residents to consolidate their independent living skills. There will need to be a key focus on tenancy management, including supporting residents to engage with and maintain engagement with support services, budgeting, self-care, cooking, building confidence and resilience, and making safe connections with others. The project will offer a welcoming reception area, staff office, key-working rooms and communal space, which will allow staff to deliver high levels of personalised support to the residents, through structured interventions, as well as brief, opportunistic engagement support delivered through one-to-one key-working sessions, communal/group activities and in-reach satellite services from relevant agencies which will be arranged by the provider, including but not limited to: health, drug and alcohol support and psychological in-reach. In order to deliver this service, the support provider will be expected to recruit experienced and knowledgeable staff who are able to work with people described as 'hard to reach', using relational and creative ways to build meaningful relationships with residents. The service will be underpinned by a PIE and will have direct input from either a psychologist or psychotherapist. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d68a6de5-dddf-4d8c-b351-ab75e35b956b | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 24 Oct 2024 | | Submission deadline | 25 Nov 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 22 Jun 2025 - 31 Mar 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1,608,314 | | 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 | ISLINGTON | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North London | | Postcode | N1 2UD | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI43 Haringey and Islington | | Local authority | Islington | | Electoral ward | St Mary's & St James' | | Westminster constituency | Islington South and Finsbury | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85311000 - Social work services with accommodation ## Release History - 24 Oct 2024 at 13:43 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d68a6de5-dddf-4d8c-b351-ab75e35b956b ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d68a6de5-dddf-4d8c-b351-ab75e35b956b 24th October 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://procontract.due-north.com/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
