Summary of the contracting process

Lancashire County Council is inviting tenders for the establishment of a Provider List for Break Time, Home Care, and Short Breaks Services aimed at children and young people with disabilities. This initiative falls under the health and social work services category and aims to enhance service delivery to assist families in managing care effectively. The procurement process is currently at the Planning stage, with the submission period open until April 1, 2027. The total estimated contract value is £30,800,000, and suppliers can apply to join any of the service Lots that include options for Break Time, Day Time Short Breaks, and Intensive Positive Behaviour Support.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those with experience in providing care for children with disabilities. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and established providers of children's services are well-suited to compete for these contracts. Given the long duration of the Provider List, which can extend up to 7 years, businesses will have the chance to build lasting relationships with the council and contribute significantly to the care sector for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
