Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council is currently in the tender stage for the procurement of bed-based intermediate care services, under the title "North Yorkshire Bed-based Intermediate Care Services (100-NYC-HA)." The focus is on establishing a closed framework agreement divided into four geographical lots: Harrogate and Rural, Scarborough and Whitby, Hambleton and Richmondshire, and Vale of York (Selby and Ryedale). The framework is set to last for a potential four years, commencing on 1st October 2026 and concluding on 30th September 2028, with the option for extension until 2030. The open procedure operates under the Light Touch Regime, and interested parties must submit their bids via the North Yorkshire Council's e-tendering system, YORTender, before the deadline on 29th May 2026.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for providers registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) that have a rating of 'Requires Improvement' or better and specialise in supporting individuals with complex care needs. The framework aims to engage up to twelve providers across the four lots, encouraging small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to participate, given their reputation for adaptability and community focus. Businesses suited for this tender are those with expertise in health and social work services, capable of managing specialised care environments, and eager to become contractual partners with the North Yorkshire Council. With potential demand variability and inflationary adjustments, companies capable of scaling operations effectively will likely benefit significantly from the consistent referrals and financial terms outlined for successful providers.
