Description

Islington Council invites suitable expressions of interest from suppliers for a framework agreement for the provision of Nightly Purchased Accommodation. Islington Council is seeking to appoint contractors to the framework agreement. Contracts based on the framework agreement shall follow the terms of the framework agreement including how a contract is concluded. How a contract is concluded is explained within the invitation to tender documentation. The arrangement will be monitored against a range of outcome-based indicators which the provider will be expected to achieve. The details of these indicators will be included within the contract specification and the successful organisation will need to demonstrate they have the capability and capacity to meet these requirements.

Total Quantity or Scope

1. To ensure the provision of nightly paid accommodation can match the future demands of the housing needs service and promotes the provision of high-quality accommodation for the residents of Islington. 2. The Provider responsible for delivering the supply of properties local to Islington, with the expectation that most properties supplied will be deemed local. The Council defines a local property, as a property that is: i. In the borough of Islington and of varying bedroom sizes ii. Located in a neighbouring borough i.e. Hackney, Camden, Haringey iii. Is accessible to Islington via public transport with a journey time no longer than one hour. 3. To ensure the Housing Needs Service is able to meet Council-wide objectives such as: • Supporting people experiencing homelessness; • Reducing rough sleeping in the borough; • Ensuring decent and safe accommodation; • Challenging inequality Our mission is to create a more equal Islington, where everyone who lives here has the opportunity and an equal chance to thrive. We are all at the heart of driving this forward. But it’s not just what we do, it’s the way that we do it. This is underpinned by four values which spell out ‘CARE’ and represent what we think public service is all about: being Collaborative, Ambitious, Resourceful and Empowering. The estimated value of the nightly paid temporary accommodation contracts that may be awarded by Islington Council under the framework agreement is estimated at between £0 and £52m over the forty-eight (48) months period. The Council will be under no obligation to utilise the framework agreement. No guarantee is given towards volume or value of work under this framework agreement. Additional information: Background The council had 848 homeless households living in temporary accommodation as of 31 March 2022. The purpose of the service is to ensure homeless clients are housed in suitable, good quality, secure and safe accommodation that meets the standards as set out in in the tender documentation. It is also about supporting clients to participate and (re-)engage with the community, tackle worklessness and contribute to the local community.
