Summary of the contracting process

The Norfolk County Council is currently engaged in a public procurement process titled "Care and Support in Independent Living." This initiative aims to establish a Framework Agreement for delivering care and support services in independent living schemes across the East of England, specifically targeting Norfolk, with a published budget of £50 million and a minimum contract value of £10 million. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, and the tender period will close on 27th July 2022. The contract period is set to commence on 30th August 2022 and will last until 29th August 2032, demanding submissions from interested parties through an electronic procurement system.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses operating in health and social care services, particularly those that specialise in independent living and support for adults with social care needs. With two distinct lots within the framework—one for schemes with over 50 units and another for smaller organisations—smaller and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) should consider participating, as they are well-suited to meet the requirements outlined in this procurement. Companies that provide tailored support services for residents with disabilities or health issues will find this tender especially relevant for expanding their portfolio in public sector contracts.

Notice Title

Care and Support in Independent Living

Notice Description

Norfolk County Council wishes to establish a Framework Agreement for the provision of care and support within independent living (also called extra care) schemes which enables residents of independent living schemes to maximise their independence and lead a fulfilling lifestyle. For the purposes of this framework agreement 'Independent Living' includes any housing scheme offering on-site support and care for planned and unplanned needs twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Care and support within Independent Living is the delivery of an agreed package of care for adults who are resident in their own home within an Independent Living scheme who have been assessed as having a social care need because they are living with ill health, disability, physical frailty or a learning disability and/or with autism disability. Although schemes are predominantly for over 55s, it is expected exceptions will be made to this criterion on a case by case basis. The Framework will be split into two lots: o Lot 1 will be for Independent Living Schemes of over 50 units o Lot 2 will be for Independent Living Schemes, including existing Housing with Care (as known as Extra Care Housing) of 50 units of less. Additional information: This procurement will be managed electronically via the Council's e-procurement system.
