Notice Title

Care home services and care home redevelopment opportunities in Cornwall

Notice Description

Cornwall Council (the 'Council') is working to ensure that the available care home capacity meets the current and future demand for services. To date care homes have not been developed at the pace required to meet the increasing needs of the Cornish population both now and into the future and there is a significant gap emerging between need and the availability of supply, particularly for people living with dementia. One of a number of approaches the Council is taking to address this gap relates to the following two (2) Sites that the Council currently hold the freehold interest in: * Site 1 - Trefula Nursing Home, St Day, Redruth, Cornwall, TR16 5ET, and * Site 2 - Trengrouse, Trengrouse Way, Helston, Cornwall, TR13 8BA. The Council therefore wishes to procure one (1) Service Provider and award them the Council's Contract that will require the Service Provider to deliver the following services at the two Sites: 1) Purchase the freehold interest in the two (2) Sites from the Council through the Council's Land Contract(s) with restrictions to build and operate a new build older persons care home on each Site. 2) Undertake the operational management of the existing nursing care home at Site 1 - Trefula while the Service Provider develops Site 1 through an Operational Lease and the Trefula Existing Care Home Services Contract with the Council that will require the Service Provider to provide the provision of care services and dedicated access to the twenty-eight (28) nursing beds at the existing care home at Site 1 for Council placements (Guaranteed Beds) that must be priced either below or within the Council's fee methodology. 3) Secure funding, to enable the Service Provider to design, obtain planning permission, develop and construct a scheme on each of the two (2) Sites. As a minimum each scheme must include a new build older persons care home and key worker accommodation on each Site that meets the Council's requirements that provides accommodation that is fit for purpose, designed to modern standards and meets the Council's design principles for new build care homes, good practice for dementia friendly environments and any relevant CQC and legislative requirements, and 4) Following completion of the schemes, the Service Provider will maintain the ownership of and undertake the operational management of the scheme at each of the two (2) Sites, and enter into the Council's Care Home Contracts (Trefula Care Home Contract and Trengrouse Care Home Contract) that will require the Service Provider to provide: a) The provision of a care service at the two (2) new build older persons care home developed on each of the two (2) Sites, b) Dedicated access to a number of the Guaranteed Beds for local authority placements that must be priced below or within the Council's fee methodology, and c) The ability to spot purchase additional beds over and above the Guaranteed Beds at the two (2) new build older persons care homes developed on the Site(s). Additional information: The Council has previously issued the following notices about this procurement: Contracts Finder - early engagement notice: https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ad07d693-5c52-401e-b6cd-fa1e64633c6d Find a Tender - Prior Information Notice: https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/027614-2023 1) To access this procurement opportunity, Applicants are invited to: a) Register on the Council's e-tendering system https://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk b) Express an interest in the project titled "Care services and the re-development of two care homes in Cornwall - DN635670" c) Download, read and carefully consider the Council's Selection Questionnaire Guidance Document and Draft Procurement Documents, and d) Complete all parts of the Council's Selection Questionnaire (Part 1, 2 and 3) and return your completed Selection Questionnaire using the Council's e-tendering system https://www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk by the Selection Questionnaire Return Date. 2) The estimated value provided is indicative only and combines the estimated value of the Council's Contracts. The estimated value has been calculated by taking the value of the 28 No. Guaranteed Beds at nursing tier 1 for the five (5) year term of the Trefula Existing Care Home Services Contract plus (+) the estimated values to deliver the two (2) new build older person care homes on the Sites plus (+) the estimated value of the Council's Care Home Contracts (Trefula Care Home Contract and Trengrouse Care Home Contract) with 40% of the beds in the new build older person care homes being Guaranteed Beds that are priced at the top of the expected range and in accordance with Council's Care mix over a twenty-five (25) year term. The estimated value is not an undertaking on behalf of the Council to purchase to this or any other particular value and shall not create a binding obligation unless specifically stated within the Council's Contract. 3) While the services required in this procurement process relate to care services that fall under Schedule 3 (Health, social and other services) of Public Contract Regulation 2015 (the Regulations) this procurement process is not subject to the full regime of the Regulations but are instead governed by regulations 74 to 77 of the Regulations (the light-touch regime), however given the nature of Council's requirement, the Council is conducting this procurement in accordance with the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation as set out in the regulation 29 of the Regulations on the grounds that the Council cannot award a contract without prior negotiation because of specific circumstances related to the nature, the complexity or the legal and financial make-up or because of risks attaching to them. Applicants/Bidders are asked to note that: a) Although the Council is utilising the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation, it intends to undertake a streamlined process, limiting negotiations to matters that are strictly necessary and which would benefit from discussion between the parties, and b) The Council reserves the right to identify a Preferred Bidder following the evaluation of Initial Tender responses. In such a scenario, Bidders would not be required to undertake the negotiation meetings or submit a Final Tender. Full details of the Service Providers role, the Council's requirements and the Council's minimum standards are provided in the Draft Procurement Documents which are made available for the purpose of Public Contract Regulations in Appendix 2 of the Selection Questionnaire guidance document, and include: * Volume 1: Invitation To Participate in Negotiation (the ITPN), * Volume 2: Descriptive Document, * Volume 3: Site information, * Volume 4: Specifications, * Volume 5: Council's Contract, * Volume 6: Response Forms.
