## Summary

Liverpool City Council plans to commission an assertive outreach and response service for people sleeping rough. The service is intended to reach rough sleepers and provide support, with delivery in Liverpool. It is a health and social care service. The procurement is at the planning stage: the council has described its intention to buy the service, but has not yet invited suppliers to tender.

The council is planning the procurement and has not yet issued an invitation to tender. It has scheduled pre-market engagement, with a stated date of 15 October 2026. The planned contract period runs from 1 April 2027 to 30 March 2029, with a possible extension to 30 March 2030. The procurement is marked as above the applicable threshold. No procedure, evaluation criteria or contract value is stated in the available planning information.

The service is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and for voluntary, community and social enterprises. It may therefore be relevant to organisations with experience delivering frontline outreach, responding to the needs of people sleeping rough, and connecting them with appropriate support. Providers preparing for the future competition should consider whether they can offer the staffing and operational capacity to deliver an assertive response service in Liverpool. The council has not set out specific qualifications, accreditations or other participation requirements at this planning stage. This is an early opportunity to understand the service area and engage with the council ahead of a future tender, rather than a contract suppliers can bid for now.
