Summary of the contracting process
The procurement process titled "Offender Partnership PRS Scheme" is being spearheaded by The Police and Crime Commissioner for Derbyshire, with a focus on residential property services and social work services in Derbyshire and Derby City. The initiative seeks to secure affordable residential accommodation for offenders on probation licence. The procurement is currently in the planning stage, with a Supplier Engagement Event scheduled for 22nd January 2026.
The contract is expected to commence in April/May 2026 and will initially last for one year. Interested parties are encouraged to engage with the Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner for discussions and further information, with deadlines for potential notifications set on 27th February 2026.
With the requirement to secure at least 20 properties for assured shorthold tenancies, businesses involved in real estate, particularly those comfortable working with challenging demographics such as offenders, are well-suited to compete. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are especially encouraged to participate, as their suitability is highlighted in the procurement details.
The notice in full
Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC), in partnership with Probation Service, Derbyshire County Council, and all Local Authority across Derbyshire and Derby City, is seeking to procure a service that will secure a sustainable supply of affordable residential accommodation for single people who are offenders on probation licence. The initiative is expected to be titled the Offender Partnership PRS Scheme.
We recognise that landlords may be hesitant to offer assured shorthold tenancies to offenders. To address these concerns, the scheme incorporates measures designed to provide reassurance, including financial safeguards and comprehensive tenant management and support. The initial contract will be for a period of one year, commencing in April/May 2026.
We are inviting discussions with potential suppliers regarding this opportunity, which is anticipated to include: - Securing a minimum of 20 dispersed properties (predominantly self-contained, with some shared accommodation) across Derbyshire and Derby City, with an approximate 50:50 split. - Additional payments to landlords for tenant sign-up. - Access to a dedicated tenant support service, providing weekly engagement with tenants and acting as a point of contact for landlords to resolve any issues.
Please note: All properties secured must be let under private tenancy agreement (assured shorthold tenancy) between the landlord, letting agent, or management agent. Supplier Engagement Event We will be hosting a Supplier Engagement event on Thursday 22nd January 2026, 13:00-14:00 via Microsoft Teams.
If you would like to receive an invitation to this please send a message through EU Supply including your email address, so we can provide you with the meeting details.
