## Summary

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority is initiating the Greater Manchester Housing First Programme, aimed at delivering health and social work services to address homelessness. This contract has been awarded for £6,321,714 and is set to run from 22nd June 2022 until 31st March 2024, with a potential 12-month extension. The procurement method used is an open procedure, and the procurement is currently in the award stage following a tendering period that ended on 7th March 2022. The services will be delivered across the United Kingdom, specifically targeting individuals with complex needs who are experiencing housing difficulties.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in social work, housing services, and related industries, particularly those classified as small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies capable of providing innovative support services to vulnerable populations will be well-suited to compete. By engaging in this procurement process, businesses can contribute to an impactful initiative while expanding their service offerings and market presence within the social housing sector.

## Notice

In 2019 the Department for Levelling Up Homes and Communities (DLUHC) commissioned a programme of three pilots with Greater Manchester Combined Authority, Liverpool City Region and West Midlands Combined to pilot the large-scale delivery of Housing First in England. The service is for people who have multiple and complex needs who have experienced long term recurrent periods of homelessness and exclusion from services leading to them having difficulties in finding and sustaining suitable accommodation. The pilot has been delivered for 3 years supporting 444 people to date across the 10 Greater Manchester Local Authorities. This tender is to procure a Housing First service for a further 21 Months ( with a further 12 month extension available) to continue to support those individuals on the pilot including housing those that are yet to secure a permanent offer of accommodation.
