The procurement process is currently in the Planning stage, with the initial application round open for 30 days, allowing organisations to submit proposals until the deadline. The contract will provide nightly-purchased temporary accommodation as part of the Council's efforts to tackle homelessness effectively within the local area, situated in Northampton, United Kingdom. The initial term of the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) will last four years, with options for annual extensions, based on the Council's ongoing need for such accommodation. This procurement opportunity is designed to attract businesses specialising in temporary housing solutions, particularly those that can offer furnished and managed accommodation. Companies that can swiftly adapt to the DPS requirements and provide quality services will find a suitable market in this tender. The continuous nature of the DPS allows for new entrants to apply at any time, creating a dynamic environment where smaller firms and established accommodation providers alike can compete effectively. With an increasing focus on reducing the use of Bed & Breakfast accommodations, this presents a significant opportunity for growth in the temporary housing market in the Northampton area. ## Notice West Northamptonshire Council l is committed to tackling, preventing and reducing homelessness, and to minimising its use of Bed & Breakfast and out-of-borough temporary accommodation to meet the needs of homeless families. Although the Council is in the process of identifying procurement options to help meet the demand for temporary accommodation, urgent action is also being taken to move homeless households out of Bed & Breakfast accommodation and into suitable self-contained accommodation within the Northampton Borough or Grange Park. The Council therefore has a requirement for nightly-purchased temporary accommodation that is partly furnished and is managed and maintained by the housing supplier. All organisations wishing to provide temporary accommodation service from June 1st 2019 onwards, will need to apply to join the DPS. This includes Providers that have an existing contract. The initial "Round" for this DPS will be open for 30 calendar days. Following on from this, "Round 2" will then be open for 20 working days with "Round 3" onwards being open for 6 months. This means that Applications can be submitted throughout the duration of the DPS, but from "Round 3" onwards the Authority will only process the applications on a half yearly basis. This DPS Agreement is for an initial term of four years (until 31st May 2023), with an option to extend on an annual basis, depending on the Council's need for this type of temporary accommodation. The Council is using the process of a DPS to enable Providers to apply for the DPS at any time. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/000729-2022 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 Jan 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Not specified | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | WEST NORTHAMPTONSHIRE COUNCIL | | Locality | NORTHAMPTON | | Post town | Northampton | | Postcode | NN1 1ED | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF24 West Northamptonshire | | Local authority | West Northamptonshire | | Electoral ward | Castle | | Westminster constituency | Northampton North | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 11 Jan 2022 at 11:28 - TenderUpdate - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/000729-2022 ## Notice URLs - https://in-tendhost.co.uk/wnc/aspx/Home - https://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:173812-2019:TEXT:EN:HTML ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
