- (Lot 3) Supported Housing Service for People Experiencing Severe Multiple Disadvantages
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This contract requires proven experience delivering housing support services to homeless and vulnerable people, likely excluding general builders, cleaners or tradespeople unless they work as subcontractors to a specialist housing or charity provider. The estimated value of £8.5m suggests this is for a large, established organisation rather than a small independent business.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
