The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with submissions due by noon on 13th September 2021. This opportunity falls under the accommodation services industry category, and the contract will potentially last for up to 10 years, starting with an initial period of 6 years and an extended option of 4 years. Interested suppliers must register on the Council's e-tendering system, 'in-tend', to access tender documents and submit their bids. This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in providing accommodation services, particularly those offering furnished short-stay solutions. Companies that specialise in temporary housing, including hotels, serviced apartments, and social housing providers, would be well-positioned to compete. With multiple lots available, ranging from family homes to studio apartments, there is potential for diverse suppliers to meet the varying needs addressed in this procurement, thus fostering growth and collaboration in the housing sector. ## Notice The Council wishes to establish a Block Contract to support the Council's statutory duty to provide temporary accommodation to vulnerable households under the housing Act 1996, the Homelessness Act 2002 and the Homeless Reduction Act 2017. These Acts require the Council to provide accommodation on a temporary basis for a minimum of 56 days to relieve or prevent homelessness or for a longer term while permanent accommodation is secured. * Lot 1 - Family HMO * Lot 2 - Studio / 1 Bedroomed * Lot 3 - 2 Bedroomed * Lot 4 - 3 Bedroomed * Lot 5 - 4 Bedroomed * Lot 6 - 5 Bedroomed * Lot 7 - 6 Bedroomed The Contract will have the potential to last for up to 10 years.
