Summary of the contracting process

The Wiltshire Council is initiating a procurement process for a "Self Directed Support Service," aimed at enhancing support for individuals accessing Direct Payments. This project is categorised under 'Other community, social and personal services' and is based in the South West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method is an open procedure, with the tender period having closed on 23 November 2016. The contract, valued at £1,215,000, is set to commence on 1 April 2017 and run until 31 March 2020, with a potential extension of two years. The council's objective is to foster a trusting relationship with the successful provider, ensuring a person-centred approach to promote independence among customers.

This opportunity presents a significant avenue for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) interested in developing innovative support services. Given the underdeveloped market in Wiltshire, businesses that can creatively address individual outcomes for clients in receipt of Direct Payments will find this an attractive prospect. Successful bidders will not only contribute to improving local services but also have the chance to build enduring partnerships with the council, thereby enhancing their service offerings and market presence.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Self Directed Support Service

Notice Description

Wiltshire Council is seeking to commission a new Support Service for people wishing to access or in receipt of Direct Payments. This new service will ensure that a person centred approach is undertaken at all times which promotes the independence of customers, the achievement of outcomes and a reduced dependency upon statutory services. The Provider who is successful in bidding for this service will be able to ensure that Customers are encouraged and enable to be innovative and creative in terms of how they meet their outcomes. Currently there is an under developed market in Wiltshire with a limited range of support services available. As a result the Council has decided to block contract this service for a 3 year period (with a possible extension of a further two years) during which time the development of the market will be reviewed. The Council is looking to build a relationship with the Provider that is based on trust and openness and where this occurs will devolve greater responsibility to the Provider that will enable them to develop their service to the benefit of the Customer.
