Published requirement description

The Local Supported Accommodation Framework is a contractual arrangement with supported accommodation services to provide accommodation and support for young people who are aged 16 and above. The Local Authority has a statutory duty to provide accommodation for young people who are looked after, and/or leaving care or homeless. The aim of the framework is to:

  • Develop the local market and invite new businesses into the city
  • Improve quality of provision via improved monitoring and quality assurance processes
  • Reduce utilising spot purchasing arrangements by introducing set framework rates and requesting a breakdown of costs as part of the tender questions The Local Supported Accommodation Framework will operate for a four-year period. This will be a flexible framework whereby new providers will have the opportunity to join the framework after 2 years. This will not only allow new providers to access the framework, but will also support the stability of the market and ensure that prices remain competitive and viable. This contract falls under the Public Contract Regulations 2015 Light Touch Regime (LTR) - Regulations 74 to 77. As such, the City Council will place an advert in Find a Tender Service (FTS), publish an award notice and comply with the principles of transparency and equal treatment.

This is a reopening of the framework as specified under the original notice the contract value specified was a 4 year value and has 2 years remaining under this framework.

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 4 points.
  • “Local Supported Accommodation Framework (Flexible) - CSC/2021/584*” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
