## Summary

City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council is commissioning a Multiple Needs Navigator Service across the Bradford District. This is a health and social work service for adults with multiple and complex needs, including homelessness or risk of homelessness, substance misuse, mental ill-health, domestic abuse or trauma, and involvement in the criminal justice system. The service is intended to improve outcomes and reduce inequalities for vulnerable residents. The provider will deliver intensive, person-centred and trauma-informed support through a Navigator model, including dedicated keyworker interventions, outreach engagement, multi-agency coordination and partnership working. The work is delivered across the Bradford District and falls within the health and social work services category.

The procurement has reached tender: Bradford Council invited offers through an open procedure. It has one lot, with bids evaluated entirely on quality. Enquiries were due by 6 October 2026 at 11:00, and tenders by 13 October 2026 at 11:00. The award decision was scheduled for 28 October 2026. The initial contract runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2029, with an option to extend by four further 12-month periods, up to 31 March 2033. The estimated value is £4,043,808 excluding VAT and £4,852,569.60 including VAT. Electronic submission is allowed, and tenders must be in English.

This opportunity suits providers experienced in supporting adults facing overlapping social, health and justice-related needs. Strong candidates will be able to deliver trauma-informed, person-centred services through dedicated keyworkers, sustained outreach and practical engagement with people who may be homeless or at risk of homelessness, misuse substances, experience mental ill-health, domestic abuse or trauma, or have criminal justice involvement. The requirement also suits organisations able to coordinate effectively across multiple agencies and maintain productive partnerships around vulnerable residents. Providers should be capable of operating across the Bradford District, managing intensive casework and joining up support to improve outcomes and reduce inequalities. Organisations with an established Navigator or comparable intensive support model may be well placed to compete.
