Description

Dudley Council is planning to re-commission its current support services for homeless people and will start the procurement process within the next 12 months.
The council is inviting responses from companies with proven experience in providing 24/7 support and/or supported living services to people who have been homeless. We are particularly keen to hear from organisations who can evidence how they have worked innovatively with homeless people and can describe how this has made a meaningful improvement in people's lives
The information gathered from this exercise will help shape future proposals including any potential tendering process and associated service specification.

Participation in the pre-procurement market engagement procurement process will be at each supplier's own cost. No expense in responding to this process will be reimbursed by the Council. This is not a call for competition
The anticipated value of the contract is c£300,000 p.a.
