Supported Housing Needs Assessment

This tender for a Supported Housing Needs Assessment is generally well-structured, with clear objectives and a defined scope. However, it lacks specific evaluation criteria and details on the submission process.

The tender appears to comply with basic legal requirements, including a clear CPV code and a standard open competition procedure for a below-threshold contract. The statutory basis for the requirement is clearly stated. The deadline, while potentially tight, is within the realm of possibility for an open competition at this value.

The description of the required Supported Housing Needs Assessment (SHNA) is clear, outlining the purpose, statutory context (SHROA Act 2023), and the key cohorts to be covered. The deliverables and timelines for the draft and final reports are also well-defined.

Most essential information is present, including the title, reference, organization, estimated value, contract duration, and start date. The CPV code is provided. However, the absence of any attached documents or information regarding where to find them impacts completeness.

The tender is open to competition, and the estimated value is disclosed. The criteria for the assessment are clearly outlined in terms of scope and cohorts. There are no obvious tailored requirements favouring specific companies. The main drawback is the lack of specified evaluation criteria, which can impact transparency.

The tender specifies a contract start date and duration. However, the lack of information on e-submission methods or specific document templates makes the submission process less practical and potentially more burdensome for bidders.

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and dates are populated logically. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. The contract start date is set shortly after the submission deadline, which is consistent.

The tender description does not explicitly mention any requirements related to green procurement, social value, or innovation. It also does not indicate if the contract is EU funded, suggesting a lack of focus on these aspects.
