Summary of the contracting process

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council has completed the procurement of an "Adult Community Support and Enablement Service Framework." This project, classified under the "Health and social work services" category, encompasses various service needs such as independent housing-based enablement support and personal care. The services will be provided in the Yorkshire and the Humber region in the United Kingdom. The procurement process, identified under the code 85000000, followed a flexible, open framework approach allowing providers to join or exit based on demand and performance. This comprehensive framework will operate from 1st March 2023 through to 29th February 2028, with a notable estimated value of £62,279,285. The tendering process was concluded with the award on 12th April 2023.

The "Adult Community Support and Enablement Service Framework" offers a substantial growth opportunity for businesses involved in health and social work services. This framework allows large organisations as well as SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises) and VCSEs (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises) to engage, particularly those with capabilities in providing support for personal care, community engagement, and health maintenance. With a five-year operation period and an open admission for service providers, this framework encourages continuous business interaction and expansion within a competitive yet supportive ecosystem. Large suppliers such as Accede Support, Community Integrated Care, and Dimensions UK Limited have successfully secured roles, indicating a robust potential for similar capable entities to participate actively and contribute to this societal enhancing service structure.
