Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC) is inviting tenders for Young Persons Housing Related Support Services. Our vision is to provide accessible, good quality and cost effective housing-related support that promotes independence, social inclusion, complements other services and reduces or prevents the need for access to crisis and high cost statutory services.
A wide range of people may need ‘housing related support’ to prevent a loss of tenancy, to develop skills to move into and manage their own home, to increase their capacity for independent living or to prevent them moving to residential or institutional care. Housing related support services can offer long or short term support options, with the support activities tailored to a person’s specific needs.

This procurement process is being managed by the Authority in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR). The ‘light touch’ provisions of the PCR apply to these services (Section 7 – Social and Other Specific Services).
The process will be run in three stages:
Stage 1 – Invitation to submit an initial tender – bidders submit their response to the Selection Questionnaire (SQ) and an initial tender response.
Stage 2 – Dialogue – bidders that are successful in Stage 1 are invited to participate in dialogue sessions with the Authority with the aim of refining and developing their proposal.
Stage 3 – Invitation to submit a final tender – bidders that participated in dialogue are invited to submit a final tender response.
The Authority reserves the right to award a contract for any of the Lots following the evaluation of initial tenders at Stage 1, and therefore not progress to Stages 2 and 3.
