This involves roles such as a Housing Planner and Housing Asset Management Officer to provide long-term solutions for housing stock. The procurement is in the planning stage, with a future notice date of 8th May 2024. The opportunity is for service providers in the office personnel supply category, worth £999,999 GBP. This tender by the Scottish Police Authority offers opportunities for businesses in the office personnel supply services sector. Companies capable of providing housing planning and asset management services to support the National Housing Strategy are well-suited to compete. The tender requires expertise in housing strategies and asset management, offering potential for long-term engagement with the strategic and tactical working groups overseeing the project. ## Notice In 2021, the Police Scotland Housing Strategy was approved. The National Housing Strategy proposes a blended approach which, in areas where no leasing opportunities exist with local housing associations or local authorities, identifies SPA-owned residential properties for 'Retain & Invest'. Through delivery of this approach where required, the outcomes will provide a long term 25-year solution for retained housing stock, as well as supporting our Estate Strategy, our People Strategy, our Environmental Strategy, our Annual Policing Plans and supporting Scottish Government's target of reaching carbon neutral by 2040. Currently delivery of the National Housing Strategy is being managed by the Estates Transformation (North) team, who will remain in support and will provide oversight and a point of contact for any specialist services support. This requirement is to secure additional resource to support the continued delivery of the National Housing Strategy, notably: 1 x Housing Planner 1 x Housing Asset Management Officer Full indicative roles & responsibilities are contained in attached document. It would be desirable that these roles are each filled by one person on a full-time basis, however alternative solutions will be considered as long as the requirement is appropriately staffed. It is likely the requirements of the service may begin to reduce from year 2 or 3 onwards, for the remaining duration of the contract - this is in line with the required level of service reducing as properties are working through. This specific area of work is subject to oversight and scrutiny by the Strategic and Tactical Remote and Rural Working Groups, chaired by the North Territorial Assistant Chief Constable and N Division Commander respectively. A main aspect of these groups focuses on the availability of suitable accommodation for officers and their families in order to meet their operational objectives. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The publication of this PIN will be used to undertake preliminary market research and to inform the market of the Authority's intention to procure Resource to Support Delivery of National Housing Strategy and gauge interest therein.
