Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Greenwich is seeking established Social Care providers to tender for the 'Prison Social Care' service for its cluster of prisons, which includes HMP Belmarsh, HMP Thameside, and HMP YOI Isis. This procurement process, identified by tender ID SPS 1095/2, is currently in its award stage, aiming to commence the new service on 1st April 2017. The total value of the contract is estimated at £10 million, with the initial contract period lasting five years, potentially extending up to seven years. Bids must have been submitted by 22nd July 2016, preceding the award decision, which is anticipated around 3rd October 2016.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for large-scale Social Care providers and voluntary or community sector enterprises (VCSE) to expand their operations within the prison system, particularly those experienced in delivering services aligned with the Care Act 2014. The contract notably requires that all staff involved undergo enhanced security checks, making it suitable for organisations familiar with operational standards in secure environments. This aligns well with businesses focusing on social services, particularly those that can navigate the intricate requirements of providing care to the prison population.

Notice Title

Prison Social Care

Notice Description

We would like to invite established Social Care providers to tender for the opportunity to deliver a social care service to the Greenwich cluster of prisons including HMP Belmarsh, HMP Thameside and HMP YOI Isis. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Social Care provider to deliver social care support to prisoners in the Greenwich cluster of prisons in-line with the Care Act 2014. The Care Act 2014 bought new duties in relation to prisons and social care. These duties include, from 1.4.2015, the delivery of social care to all eligible prisoners while detained in 1 of the 3 prisons in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. The current contract expires on 31.3.2017 and we are looking to commence a new service from 1.4.2017 with the provider award taking place on or around 3.10.2016. This is to facilitate a 6 month period for the security clearance and training of staff. All staff involved in the contract must be cleared to Enhanced Level 2 and NSC (Criminal Records Office (CRO) and Counter Terrorism Checks (CTC)). Additional information: The Contract Period is initially for a period of 5 years although the Council reserves the right to extend the Contract on the same terms for a further period or periods of up to 24 months making a total possible Contract Period of 7 years
