Description

The Contract was awarded using grant funding from Greater London Authority (GLA). The funding  is ringfenced for the purpose of reducing and ending rough sleeping, as set out in the bidding process and was awarded on the basis of a specific initiative and delivery partner.
The Council worked closely with the provider on the planning for the bid.   The provider was identified as the preferred partner due to the excellent level of service delivery they have demonstrated since taking over another contract in the borough in 2022. 
This collaboration led to the development of the service specification for a complex needs' adults service, combining both the Council's and the provider's expertise and values. 
The new funding enabled the Council to increase provision in the  homelessness  Pathway  for adults aged 24 and above with a history of repeated homelessness and rough sleeping who have complex support needs, a group identified through a strategic gap analysis as being underserved.
The Contract was awarded for 3 years starting from 18th March 2024.

The Drive Project: Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Services

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Warwickshire, in partnership with the Drive Project, is seeking a qualified Service Provider to deliver a Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Intervention Service. The Drive Project is a nationally recognised response to domestic abuse, designed to reduce the number of child and adult victims by disrupting and changing perpetrator behaviour. It adopts a whole-system approach, combining intensive individual case management with a co-ordinated multi-agency response to drive behavioural change. The project prioritises victim safety while complementing existing victim services. It targets high-risk or serial perpetrators, both male and female, aged 16 and over, who present the greatest risk of serious harm and typically engage poorly with existing services. The key objectives are to reduce the number of serial perpetrators of domestic abuse, reduce the number of repeat and new victims, and reduce the harm caused to victims and children. By addressing perpetrator behaviour, Drive tackles the root cause of domestic abuse and improves outcomes for victims and families. The appointed provider will deliver one-to-one case management for perpetrators, support systemic change through multi-agency collaboration, participate in the Perpetrator Panel (e.g., MATAC or similar forum), and work closely with the Drive Partnership, PCC, local authorities, IDVA services, and stakeholders to develop and adapt best practice models. This is a one-stage tender process. The contract falls below the Light Touch Regime threshold and is therefore outside the Procurement Act 2023; compliance with Act provisions is voluntary. The contract will be for an initial 12-month period with an option to extend for up to a further 12 months, subject to funding. Target go-live date is 01 April 2026. The funding envelope for this project is £317,438 per annum (VAT exempt). Award of contract, including any extensions, is subject to receipt of programme funding.
