Description
The WMCA, through the work of the Homelessness Taskforce, is in the process of securing funding from the Rough Sleeping Initiative (year 5 22- 25), for the region. This funding, to be finally confirmed, for the WMCA from the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) is in addition and adds value to any funds allocated to individual Local Authorities. The WMCA will liaise with partner Local Authorities to ensure relevance and strategic fit of services commissioned.
The WMCA is seeking submissions from relevant organisations, to deliver outcomes through the RSI Fund 2022-25 over a 24-month period in the financial years 2022-23; 2023-24 and 2024-25. Bids for the Employment Support Project are being limited to £70,000.00 (+ VAT if applicable) in order to assure a spread of provision and outcomes out of a total of £190,000.00 available (+ VAT if applicable).
The WMCA is seeking outcome focused innovative projects designed to provide entry to sustainable employment for people at risk of sleeping rough, those currently rough sleeping or to sustain recent transitions away from sleeping rough. The investment should be used to promote access to employment to ensure rough sleeping is prevented wherever possible, so it is rare, and where it occurs it is brief and non-recurring.
The contract for this project will be based on the Memorandum of Understanding document provided and bids are being assessed on the evaluation criteria outlined in the Specification document. Only those organisations that respond satisfactorily to the Standard Selection Questionnaire will have their tenders assessed.
Please note that the deadline for tender returns is 1700 on 22nd July 2022.
