About this contract

Further to the previous market engagement and tendering for a service to source private rented sector accommodation as part of Derbyshire’s High Risk Offender Partnership work, we have reviewed our requirements and wish to engage with the market to consider the viability of these: We wish to ask your views on 1) The viability of securing an ongoing supply of private rented accommodation for individual tenancy; both self-contained and single rooms in shared accommodation that is suitable for offenders managed under MAPPA* arrangements across Derbyshire which is affordable and very close to Local Housing Allowance rental rates. 2) The pricing approach for delivery of this service We would like to invite interested suppliers to attend an in person event to discuss their market specific perspective on the above. The event will be held at Derbyshire Constabulary on Wednesday 5th August 2026 at 11:00am. Please email [email protected] to confirm attendance.
