Night-time Support Services in Category 2.5 Sheltered Housing

Portsmouth City Council is inviting requests to participate from suitably qualified suppliers to provide a night time support service to support the provision of 24/7 support within our Category 2.5 Sheltered Housing Service. These services will provide a consistent and prompt on site response to Service Users who require assistance in their home or within the Sheltered Housing Scheme.

All successful providers are expected to ensure they and their employees deliver a night-time support service which is provided in an enabling manner, assisting the Service User to maintain their ability to remain living independently. The service provision should provide an excellent level of customer service, ensuring the right support is provided at the right time, resulting in positive outcomes for Service Users.

The council is targeting to have awarded the contract on 20 December 2023 to allow for service commencement on 1 March 2024. The contract will be let for an initial term of 3 years which may then run for a further 2 years in increments set by the Council to a total maximum term of 5 years, subject to performance and at the sole option of the Council.

The estimated total contract value across all 4 lots is IRO £430,000 pa, £2,150,000 over maximum 5-year contract term.

The estimated per annum value of each lot is as follows;

Lot 1 - Bresler House (56 properties) and Arthur Dann Court (50 properties) - Estimated value per annum £123,135

Lot 2 - St Johns Court (44 Properties) and John Marshall Court (49 Properties) - Estimated value per annum £121,738

Lot 3 - Nicholson Gardens (41 Properties) and Ian Gibson Court (45 Properties) - Estimated value per annum £124,066

Lot 4 - Hale Court (80 Properties) - Estimated value per annum £62,265

The total contract value across all four lots is expected to remain in the region of £430,000 per annum for the term of the contract, however it may increase or decrease throughout the contract term subject to any known or unknown changes to service demand, budget allocation, variation of services, or addition of further associated services in order to meet changes in demand or the service delivery.
