Hotel and other nightly paid accommodation for use as emergency accommodation for homeless households

Tender description

North Hertfordshire District Council is undertaking Preliminary Market Engagement in relation to a proposed two-year, non-exclusive, multi-supplier arrangement for nightly-paid emergency and temporary accommodation for homeless households. Demand is variable and placements may be required on the same day or outside normal working hours. The current planning assumption is approximately £250,000 aggregate expenditure per year for two years, with no guaranteed volume or spend for any supplier. This exercise is not a tender and responses will not be scored or used to pre-qualify suppliers. The Council is seeking practical feedback to inform the final specification, pricing mechanism, contractual terms and booking process. All responses must be submitted via the Council’s e-tendering portal, ‘In-Tend,’ accessible at https://supplier.in-tend.co.uk/supplyhertfordshire/home. For technical assistance, contact the In-Tend Helpdesk at 0845 557 8079 or email support@in-tend.com.
