LBN Supported Living Pseudo-DPS

A Meet the Buyer's Webinar event has been scheduled for Supported Living, Floating Support & Homelessness & Rough Sleeping Accommodation based Services for the 14th Jan 2022. Newham council would like to share the proposed strategic vision and transformation of existing services, please see attached slide deck outlining the key components. The event will allow the Council to share high-level plans for the Council's upcoming procurement, and the planned imminent market testing with providers. This is not an invitation to tender. We are inviting individual organisations, partnerships or consortia to attend this Meet the Buyer's Event. Service Commissioners will provide a webinar to update the market about the strategic vision. Organisations will also be given the opportunity to ask commissioners any questions. If organisations have any immediate questions then please contact Nina Khatun (details below) and the commissioners can address this at the Event. All questions and answers will be shared with attendees of the Events. This Event will be followed by a Market Test exercise. It is intended that organisation's with relevant experience return a completed questionnaire. Organisations are encouraged to attend the meetings with potential collaborative Partner's to discuss the solutions they currently offer and some of the challenges they come across. The Service is under increasing budgetary pressure and is keen to explore how providers secure additional funds and efficiencies. We are looking to achieve a service model that will provide positive, realistic and achievable outcomes for the service users. The Market Test will inform the Service Specification and key outcomes as well as the procurement process. The Council is considering a 5 year + optional 5 year extension Pseudo-DPS (PDPS) for this procurement. The PDPS will be split into 4 lots:

• Lot 1: Supported Living
• Lot 2: Floating Support
• Lot 3: Housing Related Support (HRS)
• Lot 4: Extra Care Additional Lots maybe added to the PDPS subject to approval at Cabinet.
