## Summary

The London Borough of Hounslow has issued a tender for the provision of a Floating Support Service aimed at enhancing the quality of life for vulnerable adults in the borough. The service will offer personalised preventative support to prevent crisis situations, such as homelessness or hospital admissions. The contract value is £5,240,000,000, and the tender deadline is set for June 9, 2023. The contract period will run from January 15, 2024, to January 14, 2029. This procurement falls under the main procurement category of services, specifically related to Health and social work services.

This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise organisations (VCSEs) interested in providing support services for vulnerable adults. Businesses involved in health and social work services would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The proactive and outcome-focused nature of the Floating Support Service requires providers who can deliver relational one-to-one support effectively. The London Borough of Hounslow is the contracting authority responsible for overseeing this procurement process.

## Notice

The purpose of the Floating Support Service is to improve the quality of life for vulnerable adults living in the borough through the delivery of relational one to one personalised preventative support. Support will be outcomes focused and enabling, doing with, not for. The service will provide assertive and practical support to residents who are likely to deteriorate or isolate themselves if no proactive support is given, resulting in crisis, the loss of independence and poor outcomes, e.g., homelessness, care packages and care home placement, hospital admission, etc.
