Notice Description

Closing Date has been amended. ESPO is seeking to establish a multi supplier Framework Agreement for the supply of systems to facilitate the monitoring and/or scheduling by local authorities and other service commissioners and service providers of home care (domiciliary care) services. The requirement is for both stand alone and integrated systems, with various hosting options and technologies. Systems must be tailored to the needs of the home care sector. Lot 1: Electronic Homecare Monitoring Solutions - This lot covers systems that enable the customer to monitor whether its own and/or external care workers have visited a service user to provide care, at what times and for how long. Lot 2: Scheduling Solutions - This lot covers systems that assist customers in scheduling care workers efficiently depending on variables such as, consistency, service user requirements/preferences, care worker availability and routing. Lot 3: Integrated Electronic Homecare Monitoring and Scheduling Solutions - This lot will be used by customers who require a comprehensive system that combines the functionalities offered by both Lots 1 and 2. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement, The Framework Agreement has the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated includes the option period. As a Central Purchasing Body as defined by the EU Procurement Directive 2014/24/EU, the Framework Agreement is open for use by Public Bodies (defined at https://www.espo.org/ESPO/media/Documents/FAQs/ESPO-s_powers_to_trade__website_-2016-12-22.pdf) that also fall into one of the following classifications of user throughout all administrative regions of the UK: Local Authorities; Educational Establishments (including Academies); Central Government Departments and Agencies; Police, Fire and Rescue and Coastguard Emergency Services; NHS and HSC Bodies, including Ambulance Services; Registered Charities; Registered Social Landlords; The Corporate Office of the House of Lords, The Corporate Officer of the House of Commons; or any public body established by or under the Scotland Act 1998 or any Act of the Scottish Parliament.
