Summary of the contracting process

The Wakefield Council is seeking to establish a Pseudo Dynamic Purchasing System for Individual Service Funds (ISFs) in the Health and Social Work Services category. The procurement process involves three stages, with the first stage requiring interested parties to respond within 30 days. The PDPS is expected to operate from 1st August 2023 to 31st July 2026, extendable at the Council's discretion. The tender deadline is 4th May 2023, with a contract period lasting until 31st July 2028.

Businesses in the health and social work services sector, particularly those focused on individual support services, are well-suited to compete. The Wakefield Council aims to work closely with providers to meet individual outcomes and maintain transparency throughout the process, ensuring fairness and openness. This non-competitive process emphasises flexibility and personalisation, offering potential for long-term business growth within the specified service category.
