Description

The Council is considering a Framework approach when tendering for the provision of Housing Related Support Services.

If pursued, it is anticipated the tender will enable providers to apply to join the Framework in December 2021 in readiness to deliver services from July2022.

The Framework may allow for both direct award and/or mini competitions and may run for a period of up to 7 years.
Housing related support (HRS) services assist the housing department within Southampton City Council (SCC) to deliver duties set out in the Homeless Reduction Act 2017 and the Homeless Strategy (2018-2023). HRS services also support a number of other strategies including Southampton Housing Strategy (2016-2025) and Southampton Corporate Plan (2020-2025). These services also support the Council in complying with a number of duties under the Health and Social Care Act 2012 and Care Act 2014.
The purpose of this Early Engagement is to notify the market of the procurement and to gain views on the proposed Framework from
the market. An online survey has been published on the Council's e-portal service www.southampton.gov.uk/business-licensing/supply-council/supply-portal.aspx.
The council would welcome responses to the published questions and comments on the proposed approach.
