What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Service to be provided by the Provider is the provision of a Housing Support Service, primarily for single homeless people or childless couples who may have complex needs, residing in supported, interim accommodation.

The Provider will also provide or make partnering arrangements with another organisation to provide a Housing Management Service for the accommodation at specific Premises and where applicable will enter into such associated lease arrangements with the owner landlord of the Premises as may be necessary for this purpose.

It was up to Tenderers to determine whether they would provide this service, or whether they would contract with another organisation to provide this service. How this related Housing Management Service is provided will directly impact upon Council budgets for the provision of homeless services and the amount of government funding available to support these services.

The Council looks to maximise the monies available to better assist more Service Users. The specific Premises to support the Housing Support Service must be Specified Accommodation as defined by Law.
