Notice Description
The Participating Local Authorities are seeking to appoint multiple Providers to deliver Services for the provision of Independent Foster Care Services on a non-exclusive basis. The Provider acknowledges that, in entering this Flexible Procurement Agreement (the Contract), no form of exclusivity or volume guarantee has been granted by the Participating Authorities for Services from the Provider and that the Participating Organisations are at all times entitled to enter into other contracts and agreements with other Providers for the provision of any of the Services. The Lead Authority are carrying out the Opening of this bespoke Flexible Procurement Agreement (Contract) under the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (as amended), within the Social and Other Specific Services Procurement Route. This means that the Lead Authority will invite all interested parties to tender as a single stage. This is the second Opening of the Flexible Procurement Agreement NEPO603 - Tyne-Tees Independent Foster Care Services (C-012130) for which an Award Notice was published on 29.06.2022. This is the second Opening of the Flexible Procurement Agreement which can be found on Find a Tender Award Notice 2022/S 000-017849, and subsequent corrigendum 2022/S 000-018030. Applications for this Opening can be made at www.nepo.org Additional information: Newcastle City Council (''the Lead Authority'') is acting as the lead authority on behalf of the North East Procurement Organisation (NEPO) and its Member Authorities, in respect of the procurement of this Flexible Procurement Agreement (Contract). The North East regional governance arrangements have determined that this is a non-mandatory collaborative exercise, and as a result, Local Authorities can 'opt-in' to the six different elements of the solution, with some Local Authorities choosing to continue to purchase some of these services through other local arrangements. The Participating Local Authorities 'opting in' to the initial phase of this solution are detailed in the tender pack. Local Authorities who have 'opted out' for any Lot at this initial period of the solution may 'opt-in' to use the solution during its term. The agreement will be available for use by all NEPO Members. A list of member organisations is available in the About section of the NEPO website at: www.nepo.org.
