## Description
Portsmouth City Council is inviting requests to participate from suitably qualified suppliers to provide a night time support service to support the provision of 24/7 support within our Category 2.5 Sheltered Housing Service. These services will provide a consistent and prompt on site response to Service Users who require assistance in their home or within the Sheltered Housing Scheme.  
The service will be procured via a two-stage procurement process. The first stage is the Call for Competition (CFC) which will require interested providers to respond to a Standard Selection Questionnaire (SQ). Following evaluation of the completed SQs, all those candidates that have met the minimum requirements and have scored over 60% on their technical and professional ability (including references) and project specific questions, will then be shortlisted against each lot they have bid for and taken through to the tender stage.  At the selection (SQ) stage, providers will need to notify the council which lots they would like to tender for. Each lot will be shortlisted separately. At the Invitation to Tender (ITT) stage shortlisted providers will be required to submit a Quality Assessment Questionnaire. 
This opportunity has been split into four lots. Whilst providers can bid for and be shortlisted against multiple lots, the Council has opted to limit the number of lots a provider can be awarded to a single lot, with the exception that lot 4 (the only single scheme) can be awarded to the same winning provider as lot 2 or lot 3. This will result in no provider delivering support at more than three schemes. However, to satisfy our best value duties the council has set a 60% quality threshold (please see section III.1.4. for further information).
The council is targeting to have awarded the contract on 20 December 2023 to allow for service commencement on 1 March 2024. The contract will be let for an initial term of 3 years which may then run for a further 2 years in increments set by the Council to a total maximum term of 5 years, subject to performance and at the sole option of the Council.
The estimated total contract value across all 4 lots is IRO £430,000 pa, £2,150,000 over maximum 5-year contract term. The estimated per annum value of each lot is as follows;
Lot 1 - Bresler House (56 properties) and Arthur Dann Court (50 properties) - Estimated value per annum £123,135
Lot 2 - St Johns Court (44 Properties) and John Marshall Court (49 Properties) - Estimated value per annum £121,738
Lot 3 - Nicholson Gardens (41 Properties) and Ian Gibson Court (45 Properties) - Estimated value per annum £124,066
Lot 4 - Hale Court (80 Properties) - Estimated value per annum £62,265
The total contract value across all four lots is expected to remain in the region of £430,000 per annum for the term of the contract, however it may increase or decrease throughout the contract term subject to any known or unknown changes to service demand, budget allocation, variation of servic...
