## Summary

The procurement process led by Leicester City Council, identified by tender ID DA0026, focused on delivering a "High Intensity Use Pilot" service in the health and social work sector. This pilot aims to address the complex healthcare needs of homeless substance users in Leicester, a high priority group for the council. The procurement was conducted under a direct procurement method, categorised as below threshold and executed without competition. The award, which was made on 12 June 2026 and officially recorded on 16 June 2026, involves an active contract valued at £50,000 GBP, running from 15 June to 12 October 2026. The main supplier, Inclusion Healthcare Social Enterprise CIC, an SME, will deliver these services within Leicester.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those focused on supporting homeless and vulnerable populations. Organisations with expertise in complex healthcare provision and experience in collaborative projects with local councils are well-suited to compete for similar contracts. The pilot's emphasis on integrated support, involving GPs and care coordinators, highlights potential business growth areas for healthcare providers skilled in multidisciplinary approaches and those capable of addressing the needs of high-frequency emergency service users.

## Notice

Pilot model built on the success of the homeless engagement nurse that is currently funded via the DATRIG Housing Support Grant. This funding will enable that nurse to be increased to a band 7 in order to supervise the recruitment of 1 care coordinator, and 2 peer support workers with additional GP resource. The GP resource will need to be based within Inclusion as they are the sole LLR provider for homelessness primary care. The pilot will predominantly be working with homeless substance users who have complex health care needs and are generally higher attendees of A&E. These are considered a high priority group for Leicester.
