Summary

Machine-generated summary

Plymouth City Council is planning to commission supported accommodation for young people aged 16+ through a five-year framework contract, with an option to extend for a further three years. The framework is proposed to have three lots: Lot 1 covers block-purchased provision within Plymouth, where whole properties are commissioned rather than individual placements to give greater control over quality, cost and safeguarding; Lot 2 covers spot-purchased provision within Plymouth and a 20-mile radius; Lot 3 covers spot-purchased provision outside a 20-mile radius. The council is holding a market engagement session on 20 October from 10:00 to 13:00 at Crownhill Court, Plymouth, to discuss the proposed service model and gather feedback on the draft service specification before procurement. Booking is by email, with a maximum of two places per organisation.

Key points

Plymouth City Council would like to invite providers to an initial market engagement session to help shape the future 16+ Supported Accommodation Framework and block. It is proposed to commission a five-year framework contract, with the option to extend for a further three years, for 16+ supported accommodation. The framework will be structured into three distinct Lots: •Lot 1: Block-purchased provision within Plymouth. This will consist of properties commissioned in their entirety, rather than individual placements. This approach enables greater control over quality, cost, and safeguarding arrangements. •Lot 2: Spot-purchased provision within Plymouth and within a 20-mile radius. •Lot 3: Spot-purchased provision outside of a 20-mile radius. This session will provide an opportunity to discuss our early thinking, hear your views on the proposed service model, and gather feedback that will help inform the development of the framework and block prior to procurement. We would also like to use this opportunity to understand the market's appetite and capacity to deliver accommodation and support for young people experiencing or at risk of homelessness, and how this could be reflected within the future lot design. Ahead of the session, we will share a first draft of the service specification to allow providers time to review the proposals and identify any areas for discussion. We welcome constructive feedback and look forward to working collaboratively with the market to develop a framework and block that delivers high-quality, sustainable services for Plymouth's young people. Where: Crownhill Court, Tailyour Road, Crownhill, Plymouth, PL6 5DH Date: Tuesday 20th October Time: 10.00 - 13:00 How to book a place: please email jointcommissioning@plymouth.gov.uk with the subject field of 16+ Supported Accommodation Market Event.
