The Service shall provide housing-related and parenting support to families who may be at risk of homelessness, with the overall aim of developing essential living skills, resilience and increasing independence. The Council currently has three contracts in place for the provision of tenancy-related support for families. A decision has been made to tender for a new, comprehensive service which will bring all commissioned family support provision together under one contract with a single provider. Portsmouth City Council requires a range of accommodation-based and dispersed floating support services to meet the needs of vulnerable families in the city who may be homeless, threatened with homelessness or in significant need of accommodation with additional support. The service will comprise of; o Element 1: Accommodation-based support for families with significant support needs (minimum 45 units) o Element 2: Dispersed tenancy support for families living in Local Authority sublet tenancies (minimum 32 units) o Element 3: Floating family support for families in other housing tenures (minimum 14 units) An organisation wishing to bid for this contract will need to be able to evidence it can provide accommodation which meets the requirements of element 1 of the Service and the provision of accommodation-based support. Portsmouth Churches Housing Association currently provides 24 units of accommodation across two locations in the city for use as family supported housing under the existing service arrangements. These units are available for use under this new contract should providers wish to use them. Portsmouth City Council will provide local authority housing stock for use by the provider to accommodate families with supported sublet tenancies. This contract is being tendered under two lots. Tenderers can bid under both lots and indicate a preference. o Lot 1: 3-year initial term with the provision to extend for 5 further years up to a maximum term of 8 years o Lot 2: 5-year initial term with the provision to extend for 3 further years up to a maximum term of 8 years Whilst it is the council's preference to award from lot 1 the council will consider a longer initial term under lot 2 where additional benefits can be realised. The Council reserves the right to award under either lot. The estimated value of the contract is ?631,200 per annum, ?5,049,600 over the maximum 8-year term. Tenderers will have the option to request 1-2-1 clarification meetings with the council, time has been set aside w/c 28 Mar 2022 for these meetings and is expected that they will take place via Teams.
