two.2.4) Description of the procurement

As part of the Government’s ambition to end rough sleeping, funding from Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) has been provided to the City of London (City) as part of a Public Health England (PHE)/Greater London Authority (GLA)/Local Authority (LA) partnership-led pan London Substance Misuse Programme for people who sleep rough/in hostel accommodation/risk of return to the street. The grant will better address the increasing complexity of their substance misuse treatment and recovery needs. The City has agreed to act as the lead commissioner for this Programme using the grant funding obtained.

The City invited Tenders from a Lead Provider with relevant qualification, skill and experience for the provision of ten abstinence-based intermediate rehabilitation beds for people who are moving on from an inpatient detoxification stay. The Service will provide a vital period of support to those who need more time in a setting that will support their abstinence, improve sustained recovery capital and prepare for either further residential/community rehabilitation and step-down housing in the community. The Service will make a critical contribution to the wider strategic intention to end rough sleeping and reduce harm linked to substance misuse.

Due to the procurement timeline, the Service will deliver at least 5 beds at commencement of contract, increasing to 10 beds at end of 6 weeks post-commencement.

The duration of the contract is 12 months, subject to the right of the City (at its sole discretion) to exercise its right to extend the contract by up to 6 months. The maximum length of the contract is therefore 18 months subject to performance and funding availability.

The estimated total value of the contract is also stated in II.1.5) and II.2.6) of this notice and is for the entire duration, i.e. including the optional extensions.

Organisations were made aware that due to the contract value (of the Service), any contract formed as a result of this procurement process shall be executed as a deed.
