Tender description

Singles and Childless Couples Flexible Level Supported Housing Framework. We are developing a supported housing framework commissioning Registered Providers to provide housing related support at units of accommodation they bring to the framework for childless couples and single people. BCC does not currently have a supported housing service for this cohort, and it is intended to complement the services we do currently commission for our homelessness pathways and supported families accommodation framework. This supported housing is a sustainable and fully funded alternative to Temporary Accommodation, which we currently procure from predominantly private landlords. The RPs will deliver the housing, and BCC will commission the RPs to deliver a housing related support service to the clients, and it is this support service that we are looking to procure. Homeless childless couples and singles present with differing levels of support need from low to high, and we would like this framework to reflect that variation by enabling flexible delivery of support according to client need.

About the buyer

Bristol City Council is a local authority that runs its own Procurement and Contract Management Service. Larger contracts are commissioned through ProContract, the council's Due North e-tendering portal, where suppliers register for alerts. High-value opportunities also appear on Find a Tender, and Contracts Finder carries lower-value contracts. Frameworks, dynamic purchasing systems and awarded contracts are listed on the council's e-procurement contracts register. A commercial pipeline gives a forward look at anticipated outsourcing over the next twelve months. Adult social care is commissioned by the Adult Care Commissioning team, largely through a single commissioning framework.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of Bristol City Council's contract awards have been in health and social work, construction work and architectural and engineering services.
