Description

Portsmouth City Council is planning to tender a new contract for its Temporary Accommodation Service, the provision of supported temporary accommodation for homeless applicants.

It is anticipated that the Contract will last for an initial term of 3 years with an option to extend up to a maximum term of 8 years (in increments to be agreed) and it is intended to be used for the provision of housing related support to single people, couples and families who are being provided with temporary accommodation, as a statutory duty, whilst the Local Authority concludes its enquiries into their homelessness.

As a precursor to the issue of tender documentation, the Council would like to consult organisations on the proposed scope, content of the contract, and specification. Consequently, we have produced this short consultation document and would welcome input into this process from interested parties. The deadline for receipt of responses is 2nd August 2021. Responses should be returned using the correspondence function on In-Tend.

Views of perspective tenderers are very important to us, will be taken into consideration, and may have a direct bearing on the final documentation. The purpose of the consultation is to engage collaboratively with our partner agencies and providers in developing an accommodation and support model which will support individuals to secure and sustain housing following a period of homelessness.

This timetable is intended only as a guide and may change during the consultation period. A final timetable will be issued as part of the tender documentation.
