## Summary

The Aberdeenshire Council is planning to procure an Outreach Housing Support Service targeting individuals aged sixteen and over who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with key details including a total estimated value of £1,200,000. The service will be delivered across various locations within Aberdeenshire, divided into four distinct lots focusing on different areas: Banff & Buchan, Buchan, Garioch & Formartine, and Kincardine, Mearns and Marr. Interested parties should note that a providers' event is set for 3rd May 2018, where potential bidders can gather more information before the official invitation to tender is published.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in housing support services, particularly those experienced in providing tailored assistance to vulnerable populations. Firms equipped to deliver flexible and outcomes-focused support will find themselves well-positioned to compete. Businesses in the social care sector, especially those offering services related to mental health, learning disabilities, or homelessness, would benefit greatly from this contract. With the focus on enabling clients to transition to independent living, companies that can demonstrate innovative approaches and a commitment to client-centred care will have a competitive advantage.
