Summary of the contracting process

The Cambridgeshire County Council is currently in the planning stage of the Care Homes Block Tender, focusing on health and social work services. This procurement process aims to establish new block residential dementia, nursing, and nursing dementia beds within the East of England, United Kingdom. An important milestone, the engagement end date, is set for 30th August 2019, giving interested parties time to connect before the tender process begins. This opportunity was highlighted during a market engagement event held on 12th July 2019 in Huntingdon, which was designed to inform potential bidders about the Council's requirements and the tender process itself.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the care home sector, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that are well-equipped to provide health and social work services. The market engagement event facilitated connections between the Council and care providers, including discussions on compliance with updated requirements, which may enable more providers to successfully bid. Businesses that specialise in dementia care and possess experience in residential settings will find themselves particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, as the Council seeks capable partners to enhance local care services.
