CPU7772 - Emergency and/or Temporary Accommodation with Support for the Homeless

This Open Framework is for the provision of Emergency and/or Temporary Accommodation with Support for the Homeless. This Procurement is a replacement for 'Lot 3 - Temporary Accommodation for Homeless Households' in the previously tendered 'CPU3880 and CPU7231 - Framework for Community Based Support and Accommodation Based Services for homeless people (and those at risk of homelessness)' procurement. It is important for Suppliers to note that if they are on the above Framework for Lot 3 and wish to participate in future contract opportunities for this service, they will need to submit a response to this Procurement. Suppliers will be required to supply appropriate Accommodation AND Support Services to Service Users and demonstrate experience in this. Aims The Nottingham Homelessness and Rough Sleeping Prevention Strategy 2025-2030 contains the following aims: • To achieve a reduction in the number of households living in Temporary Accommodation. • To decrease the length of time that households are living in Temporary Accommodation. • To achieve a sufficient supply of Temporary Accommodation for those households who need it at best value for the council. Overarching Aims • Provide safe and suitable immediate shelter to homeless households which is available for them to occupy as Emergency Accommodation or Temporary Accommodation in accordance with Nottingham City Council's responsibilities and decisions under the Housing Act 1996 Part VII. • Support Nottingham City Council in its inquiries following the Statutory Housing Assessment and in the delivery of the Personalised Housing Plan. • To assist Nottingham City Council in reducing the use of inappropriate Emergency and/or Temporary Accommodation and minimise time in Emergency and/or Temporary Accommodation. Overarching Objectives Facilitate pathways of communication between Nottingham City Council Housing Solutions and homeless households: • Communicate consistent and realistic messages to Service Users about their housing options and their responsibilities in achieving move on. • Promote the Private Rented Sector as the primary rehousing option and assist with identifying suitable housing of this tenure during the homelessness 'Relief' duty. • Operate entirely in partnership with Nottingham City Council Housing Solutions and in response to the statutory decisions reached. • Provide accommodation with onsite housing related support (individualised to each Service User) where engagement is conditional to residency and whereby only people who require this support should be referred and accepted into the services. • Facilitate access to assessment to identify and address underlying needs and improve the health and wellbeing of people using the service, reducing their risk of harm and repeat homelessness. • Host specialist in-reach/drop-in sessions within their premises to facilitate flexible access to support beyond housing related thresholds for their Service Users. • To help support the development of integrated and aligned pathways across housing; social care; primary and secondary health services; mental health drug and alcohol services, welfare services and the criminal justice sector. This is a light touch special regime concession contract as per Sections 8 and 9 of the Procurement Act 2023. The process to be used will be the Open Procedure as per Section 20 of the Procurement Act 2023. This means Suppliers will submit Core Supplier Information and a Procurement Specific Questionnaire alongside their Tender. Where a Supplier fails the Core Supplier and/or Procurement Specific Questionnaire requirement, their Tender will not be assessed. The Authority is seeking to put in place an Open Framework to establish the initial Framework and appoint one or more Framework Members to deliver services. This Procurement is intended to set up a list of approved Framework Members. There is no limit to the number of Suppliers who can be Framework Members. Call-off Award Procedures will then be conducted, and Call-off contracts will then be awarded. The Open Framework Mechanism allows the Authority to 're-open' the Framework to new Framework Members, while allow existing Framework members to also remain as Framework Members. The Authority reserves the right to re-open the Framework to new potential Framework Members when it deems it is required to ensure: • Procurement legislation is complied with. • Capacity requirements can be met. • To ensure adequate competition in the Call-off Award Procedure. • To meet needs that are not satisfied by current Framework Members. • Other reasons deemed reasonable by the Authority. The Authority will post a Tender Notice on Find Tender Service/CDP when it re-opens the Framework for new Tender submissions. As this Procurement is for a 'Light Touch Contract', the process and award of Call-off contracts may include some flexibilities permitted by this Special Regime of the Procurement Act (2023). Suppliers will be required to behave lawfully and ethically in sourcing Accommodation and in a manner that does not create additional Homelessness. The Authority reserves the right not to contract or proceed with Orders with any Suppliers where it is discovered this is not the case and the Authority reserves the right to no longer work with the Supplier in the future. TUPE The initial tendering of this Procurement does not give rise to the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) 2006 Regulations, as no existing services are being transferred. Where existing services are reviewed and put out as a Call-off Award Procedure opportunity then TUPE may be considered in each relevant case. Lots This Procurement does not consist of Lots. The Authority does not have the required information to adequately categorise Lots, for eg via 'type of accommodation' or 'geographical area' and so does not wish to reduce the amount of available competition in the Call-off Award Procedure. The Authority reserves the right to use Lots in the Call-off Award Procedure. Consideration of SME's SME's have been considered as below: • Advanced notice promoted via Pipeline Notice/ • No Lots so only one bid for access to all Call-off opportunities. • Clear requirements for Conditions of Participation to make it clear the type of experience and capability required. • Longer than required bid time provided. • No insurance required at Framework stage. • Low liability cap amounts. • Framework can be re-opened for new SME's/Suppliers Framework Term The first framework for a term of up to three years starting from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2028 and a second framework for a term of up to a further five years from 1 January 2029 to 31 December 2033. The actual Framework dates and number of Frameworks are indicative only, but the total Term is of all Frameworks added together is a maximum of eight years. In the event that only one supplier is appointed to any individual Framework in the scheme of Frameworks during the open Framework Period then the maximum term for the Framework, and the open Framework, will be 4 years from the date on which the single supplier Framework is awarded. PME No Pre-market Engagement has been undertaken and not notice has been published. Tender Modifications The Authority reserves the right to: • Refine/modify the Procurement process and/or terms • Refine the Award Criteria • 'Roll' the Procurement to an appropriate previous stage Clarifications All Suppliers should access the 'Messages' section of the e-procurement system (The Portal) on a regular basis to check for any clarifications issued on this project and/or any public exchange of information between interested parties, before final submission of their bid.
