Approved List of Suppliers for Supporting People Programme

Approved List of Suppliers for Supporting People Programme

Bradford Supporting People is currently advertising for interested providers to apply to be considered being placed on our Approved List of Providers. The List will be used by us to select providers to tender for new services. The process is open which means there are no deadlines for you to complete the questionnaire but as we are going out to tender for new services in early September we welcome a quick response.

Bradford Metropolitan District Council, on behalf of the Supporting People
Partnership, invites suitably experienced organisations to apply to join
an Approved List of Suppliers that is being formed to provide a pool of
pre qualified suppliers who meet the requirements of Bradford Council’s
accreditation scheme, from which the council will go to tender with. It is
intended that this list will operate on an open ended basis.
Bradford Council currently has a sector that provides a range of services of
housing related support to a wide range of vulnerable client groups including
for example, the homeless, elderly, refugees, young people, people with
mental health problems and people with substance abuse problems.

Application documents and further details of the areas and services
covered are to be downloaded from http://scms.alito.co.uk Please ensure
you have registered for Bradford MDC to enable access to documentation.

help desk on 0113 247 4001.
