In plain English

The Local Government Association wants a specialist supplier to write two practical guides for council housing officers and councillors. One covers preventing homelessness and the other covers managing temporary accommodation, both following the government's National Plan to End Homelessness. The guides must link up with other government guides on the Single Homelessness Pathway and street outreach.

What the buyer wants

• Research and write two practical toolkits on homelessness prevention and temporary accommodation management, including best practice, good guidance and practical advice that works within current council budget and staffing limits. • Make sure the toolkits read across to other MHCLG toolkits being procured on the Single Homelessness Pathway and Outreach, and reflect the National Plan to End Homelessness. • Deliver the finished, accessible toolkits by Spring 2027, meeting LGA accessibility requirements and showing social value, economic growth and commercial capability benefits.

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
