Description

This is a new competitive procurement process using an open procedure conducted in accordance with the light touch regime of the Public Procurement 2015 Regulations.

Nottinghamshire County Council (the Council) is inviting suitably qualified organisations to submit tenders to provide safe accommodation and support to young parents and their children. The service is to provide young parents with dedicated and safe supported accommodation, where they can be supported to effectively care for their children. It will operate on a 'Core' and 'Cluster' model, with young parents being supported and are prepared for independence and securing their own tenancy in the future.

The contract is split into lots and bids are required to be provided to the council with the aim of a single provider to enter into an agreement with the Council for each lot. The provider must bid for all lots they can deliver. No more than two contracts will be awarded to any one provider or consortium, unless there is not a viable alternative bid in which case the Council may award a third contract to one provider/consortia. If the situation arises where one provider/consortia is the highest scoring bidder on more than the maximum contracts, the Council will use its discretion to determine which two contracts will be offered to them.

Bids submitted on behalf of a group for example a consortium will be accepted.

The service is required across the South (Broxtowe, Gedling and Rushcliffe), Mansfield and Ashfield district areas and the Newark, Sherwood and Bassetlaw areas of Nottinghamshire County and will be commissioned as 3 separate lots as follows:
Lot 1 Broxtowe, Rushcliffe and Gedling (South)
Lot 2 Mansfield and Ashfield (West)
Lot 3 Newark, Sherwood and Bassetlaw

The contract will commence from 01 August 2022 for a period of 5 years to 31 July 2027. There will be the option for three twenty-four-month extensions to the contract.
