In plain English

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council wants to hire providers to support homeless people, including those sleeping rough or at risk of it. The work is split into two lots worth about £2.74 million in total (excluding VAT), running from spring 2027 to March 2030 with options to extend for up to two more years. One lot covers a 24/7 emergency accommodation service at May Place House, and the other covers street outreach, prevention work and management of two council-owned cottages.

What the buyer wants

• Lot 1: staff a 24/7 emergency accommodation service at May Place House for up to 18 single people aged 18 and over, with round-the-clock waking support. • Lot 2: run a rapid, assertive rough sleeping outreach service that prevents homelessness and moves people off the streets, and manage 1 and 3 Viables Farm Cottages as part of the housing pathway. • Bid for one lot or both, with prices stated excluding VAT and a service model that meets the diverse needs of single homeless people.
