## Summary

The City of Edinburgh Council is seeking suppliers for the contract titled "Category 1 C Shared House," which falls under the general public services category and is located in Edinburgh, UK. The procurement process, which has reached the Award stage, was initiated on 7th June 2022, and the contract was signed on 18th April 2022. This contract, valued at £720,438, involves the provision of accommodation in a shared house format, specifically designed to cater to individuals and couples in need of housing, with particular emphasis on suitable living conditions that comply with the Unsuitable Accommodation Order.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), that specialise in providing housing support services or accommodation solutions. Companies that can offer shared housing with adequate facilities and on-site support would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The focus on providing secure, accessible accommodation for individuals assessed as homeless means that suppliers capable of delivering high-quality living spaces and necessary support services will find potential for business growth in responding to this procurement opportunity.

## Notice

Each household (usually an individual or a couple) must have their own lockable bedroom, access to bathroom, living room and kitchen (see service specification for detail for each rooms requirements) It is expected that turnover of rooms will be low. It can take up to two years or more for people assessed as homeless to be offered alternative accommodation. Average length of stay for Shared Houses is approximately 5 months though some are significantly higher or lower than this. Priority will be given to accommodation that does not breach the Unsuitable Accommodation Order by providing either self-contained properties within a block with staff on site 24 hours a day or a shared property which provides each household with exclusive use of toilet and personal washing facilities and access to a living room and kitchen which may be shared with other households.
