    Brief

    Manchester City Council is conducting a preliminary market engagement exercise to gather feedback on proposed Safety and Support Services for its temporary accommodation portfolio. The Council provides temporary accommodation across Manchester for individuals and families experiencing homelessness, many of whom have experienced trauma, mental health issues, substance use, domestic abuse, or housing instability. The commissioned Safety and Support Services are essential for maintaining safe and secure environments, supporting resident wellbeing, managing risks, responding to incidents, and supporting day-to-day operations. This is a preliminary engagement only—not a formal call for competition, and the Council reserves the right not to proceed to procurement. Interested suppliers must register on the Chest e-business portal (www.the-chest.org.uk) to access the Preliminary Market Engagement Questionnaire and submit feedback via the e-procurement platform. This exercise aims to inform the Council's future procurement strategy and gather market insights on service delivery approaches.
