Tender description

The Royal Borough of Greenwich is awarding a contract for the provision of accommodation and community based support for victims of Domestic Abuse, in line with the Royal Borough of Greenwich Joint Commissioning strategy 2017-22 and the Homeless Reduction Act 2017. This commissioning strategy is a proposal to organisations across Royal Greenwich to work in partnership, including public, voluntary, community and faith organisations, to make the best use of existing collective resources and where possible identify additional resources, to address the crucial issue of domestic violence and abuse. The Royal Borough of Greenwich is seeking to appoint a single supplier to deliver this contract. The Contract Period is initially for a period of 4 years although the Council reserves the right to extend the Contract on the same terms for a further period or periods of up to 24 months making a total possible contract period of 6 years. Estimated annual cost is 400 000 GBP. However there is every reason to anticipate that public sector funding will be reduced in future years. Commissioners will expect the successful organisation to give serious consideration to how future efficiency savings could be made and to demonstrate this in their proposal.
