Summary of the contracting process

The Cornwall Council is seeking strategic partners for the development, delivery, and operation of extra-care housing across Cornwall, specifically targeting a minimum of 750 units spread over West, Mid, and East Cornwall. This procurement, classified under health and social work services, is currently in the award stage, with contracts being awarded to Mears Limited and Mears Extra Care Limited. This initiative aims to enhance social care options for older residents, with key contract values reaching up to £117 million and a contract duration of up to 30 years for the strategic partnership, inclusive of various delivery and care contracts.

Companies that can provide innovative care solutions and secure funding for such projects would be well-suited to compete. Furthermore, businesses are encouraged to leverage the framework agreement that allows them to service additional public and private bodies in Cornwall, creating pathways for sustained growth and collaboration within the region's social care market.
