The Authority wishes to procure a contract for services to support single homeless people, rough sleepers and those at risk of rough sleeping in a Homeless Place of Change supported accommodation setting (the “Services”). The Services will involve the provision of supported accommodation services constantly throughout the Contract Period described below and equipping them with the necessary skills to move on to independent living. The Services will be set out in greater detail in the Services Specification which will accompany the Invitation Tender (as will the terms of Contract) that will be sent to those who have passed the Housing Management vetting phase of this procurement (see below in Section VI for further information on the procurement process). The Contract will be for an initial 3 year period with the option to extend for a further 2 years. A site has been identified for the supported accommodation residence within the Huddersfield area (see Section VI below — the “Residence”). The successful tenderer (the “Provider”) will be expected to enter into a management agreement with the Landlord of the Residence to carry out Housing Management functions, such as completing tenancy agreements, collection of rent and making day to day repairs. This agreement will also include the Provider's licence to operate within the Residence. The Provider will receive a predetermined fee from the landlord for carrying out this function. The substance of the form of Management Agreement will be made known to those who are invited to tender to provide the Services. In order to be invited to tender for the contract to supply the Services, suppliers need to be on or accepted onto the Approved Sub-List by the Qualification Date. See Section VI below.
