## About this tender

The City of London Corporation (the City) invites Tenders for the provision of a Rough Sleeper Assessment Centre.

The Department of Community and Children's Services of the City of London wishes to commission a Service Provider to manage an assessment centre for rough sleepers within the Square Mile to support the City's strategic intention to end rough sleeping.

For rough sleepers, it will provide a safe, accessible space to have their needs triaged and met while working with staff on establishing a speedy route out of street homelessness. For many - who will not have a local connection - this will include reconnection to home areas.

The fundamental aim of the service is to identify a credible and sustainable route off the streets and encourage and support each service user to work with the service to take up the offer of accommodation that is being made

The duration of the contract is 3 years, subject to the right of the City (at its sole discretion) to exercise its right to extend the Contract by up to 2 further years. The maximum length of the contract is therefore 5 years.

Organisations should note a maximum price ceiling for the service has been set at Â£495,000 per annum. This equates to Â£1,485,000 for the initial 3 year period, and a maximum of Â£2,475,000 if the full 5 year service is taken up.
