Support will be on an assertive outreach basis, striking a balance of support between those that can be signposted to help themselves and those with more complex needs that need more in depth assessment, relationship building and multi pronged support and multi agency support alongside a number of committed partners. \nMobile Support \nA floating support service, working with those that have had an interim move into various types of shorter term accommodation, such as “off the streets” schemes, hot or cold weather related schemes, homelessness accommodation under legislation or any other local, sub regional, London wide or national schemes that come to fruition during the lifetime of the service. This service element will ensure that clients in these settings are able to set up and sustain their accommodation and again in turn are able to access multi agency support to help them progress and in the case of those for whom a statutory duty is being assessed or held, supporting them to work through personal housing plans removing barriers to longer term resettlement. \nLong Term Support / Multiply Disadvantaged Clients \nSupporting clients with more complex and longer term street homelessness histories or needs across a range of settings from street homelessness to supported pathways and into independent living. Focussing on identifying and removing barriers to resettlement and taking a team around me approach, this service element will be a constant in their clients support, coordinating and bringing together multi agencies with assertiveness and diligence, achieving quality outcomes for their clients. \nAll three service elements will have a shared goal of reducing City Rough Sleeping, performing early interventions wherever possible to keep occurrences of street homelessness brief, and working with a plethora of services in achieving a joint aim of quality support and outcomes for clients. \nInnovation and Flexibility \nThe Covid Pandemic, the approach to Everyone In, the roll out of support to help people access additional services related to covid and the years since have changed the nature of ending rough sleeping, and this change continues to be felt. To meet this change, the City of London Corporation is designing this opportunity to be able to react to future challenges and opportunities. \nUsing the learning of the last 6 years both locally and across the country, alongside the input of those with lived experience of street homelessness and accessing our services; this contract will be made up of the core services as outlined, but, additionally the opportunity to add on services and elements that may be needed over the lifetime of the service.\nThese “flexible elements” will allow commissioners to enhance the service should the need and opportunity arise to do so, and will range from enhancements to react to seasonal pressures, to the potential of adding specialist elements to the service such as more specialist support around physical or mental health, a building based approach, enhanced reconnection work, gender based specialists and others. \nSuccess \nIndicators of a successful service will be: \nReduction in Rough Sleeping Numbers \nRapid triage/assessment of those sleeping rough \nMaximised use of “off the streets accommodation” \nIncreased reconnections \nSustainment of accommodation options \nCoordination of Support on a Team Around Me basis \nImproved engagement with health services and support \nInterested providers will be asked to consider how to ensure resources are well provisioned and focussed on those clients most in need of support, based on current and historical CHAIN data for the City of London.

This is reflected in the potential value and scope of the tender. This modular approach will also allow the Corporation to react to changing needs, demand and priorities over the lifetime of the contract \nFlexible Service \nThe contract will be based on a primary service, consisting of Street Outreach, Peripatetic Support for clients placed in temporary accommodation settings and Long Term Casework for individuals with more entrenched or complex and multiple needs. \nThe contract will also outline a number of potential additions to the service over the lifetime of the contract, enabling the service to react to change on a local, sub-regional or national level. \nOptional extras may include, but are not limited to: \nSpecific premises from which to provide the service \nWeather / Seasonal-related responses, such as providing enhanced support during cold or hot weather, in addition to the normal service function during severe weather \nProviding support to specific demographics of clients, such as those identifying as women and those with complex immigration issues \nHealth improvement interventions \nProviding a bespoke response to the emergence or existence of “hot spots” or rough sleeping encampments in the City of London \nProviding an enhanced day service for street homeless individuals \nResponding to potential legislative changes or strategic developments nationally in reducing rough sleeping \nProviding an enhanced reconnection service \nResearch and investigation into wider national initiatives and market best practice \nSpecific Pilot projects to aid learning and development of practice \nPrevention initiatives, especially those targeted at preventing a return to the streets \nEach optional or potential service addition will be subject to a series of activation triggers, including the availability of funding, ensuring the Corporation is able to react quickly to potential future funding opportunities; using the learning from the 5 years since the Covid Pandemic, where funding opportunities have arisen for specific interventions. \nThe flexibility built into this procurement is made transparent and explicit within the tender documentation. \nThis tendering exercise is being undertaken using the electronic tendering system ‘City of London Corporation Sourcing & Contracts Portal’ (https://cityoflondon.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/).

This service element will ensure that clients in these settings are able to set up and sustain their accommodation and again in turn are able to access multi agency support to help them progress and in the case of those for whom a statutory duty is being assessed or held, supporting them to work through personal housing plans removing barriers to longer term resettlement. \nLong Term Support / Multiply Disadvantaged Clients \nSupporting clients with more complex and longer term street homelessness histories or needs across a range of settings from street homelessness to supported pathways and into independent living. Focussing on identifying and removing barriers to resettlement and taking a team around me approach, this service element will be a constant in their clients support, coordinating and bringing together multi agencies with assertiveness and diligence, achieving quality outcomes for their clients. \nAll three service elements will have a shared goal of reducing City Rough Sleeping, performing early interventions wherever possible to keep occurrences of street homelessness brief, and working with a plethora of services in achieving a joint aim of quality support and outcomes for clients. \nInnovation and Flexibility \nThe Covid Pandemic, the approach to Everyone In, the roll out of support to help people access additional services related to covid and the years since have changed the nature of ending rough sleeping, and this change continues to be felt. To meet this change, the City of London Corporation is designing this opportunity to be able to react to future challenges and opportunities. \nUsing the learning of the last 6 years both locally and across the country, alongside the input of those with lived experience of street homelessness and accessing our services; this contract will be made up of the core services as outlined, but, additionally the opportunity to add on services and elements that may be needed over the lifetime of the service.\nThese “flexible elements” will allow commissioners to enhance the service should the need and opportunity arise to do so, and will range from enhancements to react to seasonal pressures, to the potential of adding specialist elements to the service such as more specialist support around physical or mental health, a building based approach, enhanced reconnection work, gender based specialists and others. \nSuccess \nIndicators of a successful service will be: \nReduction in Rough Sleeping Numbers \nRapid triage/assessment of those sleeping rough \nMaximised use of “off the streets accommodation” \nIncreased reconnections \nSustainment of accommodation options \nCoordination of Support on a Team Around Me basis \nImproved engagement with health services and support \nInterested providers will be asked to consider how to ensure resources are well provisioned and focussed on those clients most in need of support, based on current and historical CHAIN data for the City of London.

This is reflected in the potential value and scope of the tender. This modular approach will also allow the Corporation to react to changing needs, demand and priorities over the lifetime of the contract \nFlexible Service \nThe contract will be based on a primary service, consisting of Street Outreach, Peripatetic Support for clients placed in temporary accommodation settings and Long Term Casework for individuals with more entrenched or complex and multiple needs. \nThe contract will also outline a number of potential additions to the service over the lifetime of the contract, enabling the service to react to change on a local, sub-regional or national level. \nOptional extras may include, but are not limited to: \nSpecific premises from which to provide the service \nWeather / Seasonal-related responses, such as providing enhanced support during cold or hot weather, in addition to the normal service function during severe weather \nProviding support to specific demographics of clients, such as those identifying as women and those with complex immigration issues \nHealth improvement interventions \nProviding a bespoke response to the emergence or existence of “hot spots” or rough sleeping encampments in the City of London \nProviding an enhanced day service for street homeless individuals \nResponding to potential legislative changes or strategic developments nationally in reducing rough sleeping \nProviding an enhanced reconnection service \nResearch and investigation into wider national initiatives and market best practice \nSpecific Pilot projects to aid learning and development of practice \nPrevention initiatives, especially those targeted at preventing a return to the streets \nEach optional or potential service addition will be subject to a series of activation triggers, including the availability of funding, ensuring the Corporation is able to react quickly to potential future funding opportunities; using the learning from the 5 years since the Covid Pandemic, where funding opportunities have arisen for specific interventions. \nThe flexibility built into this procurement is made transparent and explicit within the tender documentation. \nThis tendering exercise is being undertaken using the electronic tendering system ‘City of London Corporation Sourcing & Contracts Portal’ (https://cityoflondon.ukp.app.jaggaer.com/).
