UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council has concluded the procurement process for the "Care Support Services for Children with a Disability - Complex Support (Health Needs)", a project aimed at providing specialised care for children and young people with severe disabilities and complex health needs. This contract, initiated in the tender stage and now in the award stage, involves a framework call-off procedure under the selective procurement method. The council serves the regions UKJ35, UKJ36, and UKJ37, with the service commencing on 1st September 2026 and potentially extending until 2034. The contract, valued at £416,000, is part of the holistic support package by Hampshire County Council to meet specific outcomes agreed upon by the County Allocation Panel.

This procurement offers significant business opportunities for healthcare providers, particularly those experienced in delivering complex care services and interested in expanding their reach within the public sector. Businesses with expertise in clinical training and managing health conditions such as PEG feeding and epilepsy would be well-suited. The call-off arrangement under an existing framework suggests opportunities for continued partnership and steady business growth for suppliers like SMEs, who can offer personalised care solutions and contribute to innovative service delivery in the health and social work services sector.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Care Support Services for Children with a Disability - CS26605D - Complex Support (Health Needs)

Notice Description

Hampshire County Council Children's Services commissions care support for children and young people with disabilities. The children and young people requiring care support services will include those with severe disabilities such as learning disabilities, physical disabilities, autistic spectrum conditions, behaviour that challenges and complex physical or mental health needs. The Services are part of a holistic support package for the child / young person that meets identified outcomes as part of a Care Plan as agreed by the Council's County Allocation Panel. This Service is part of Hampshire County Council's Children's Services Department's continuum of services which support children and young people with disabilities. Care support is a Tier 4 specialist service, which can be offered to a family following a social care assessment where the Disabled Children's Team criteria has been met and/or an unmet social care need has been identified. This Service aims to facilitate the development of the market to deliver services in new and more personalised ways rather than the conventional delivery of domiciliary care which in turn will enhance the skills of staff, potentially offering greater job satisfaction, in delivering the Service and improving the experience of the Service User. This Notice relates to a call off procedure for Care Support Services for Children with a Disability - Complex Support (Health). This is for children and young people with significant health needs requiring staff with additional clinical training or experience (e.g., PEG feeding, epilepsy management, suctioning, complex medication regimes). Any potential value will be awarded through subsequently awarded Individual Service Contracts rather than at this call off stage.
