UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Yorkshire Council is developing an adult social care Community and Asset Based Support framework for services delivered across North Yorkshire. The planned scope covers two areas: Lot 1, Employment Skills; and Lot 2, Community Based Support, divided into site-based support and support delivered out in the community. The framework is intended to help determine the scope and feasibility of the requirement and shape the specification for a future procurement. This is a demand-led health and social work services opportunity, also covering wider community, social and personal services. It is relevant to organisations providing employment support, community-based care, site-based support, outreach, independence services or related adult social care provision.

The procurement is at the planning stage and currently seeks market information rather than tenders. North Yorkshire Council expects to use an open framework, with no stated limit on the number of appointed suppliers. The planned framework duration is seven years: an initial five-year period with an option to extend by a further two years. The anticipated contract period is 1 June 2027 to 31 May 2032, with extension possible to 31 May 2034. A future notice is expected on 2 December 2026. The published value is £0 GBP because demand is not yet known; the maximum framework value is to be confirmed in the future tender notice. Market engagement is scheduled to conclude on 26 August 2026.

This will suit small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, as well as established adult social care and community support providers. Organisations should consider whether they can deliver employment skills services, site-based support and practical support in community settings, either individually or through partnerships. Relevant strengths are likely to include person-centred support, community outreach, employment and skills development, safeguarding, risk management, referral handling and collaboration with local health, care and voluntary-sector services. Providers with flexible capacity for demand-led work may be well placed, since the framework is intended to support varying levels of commissioned activity. Businesses can use the planning period to review their service offer, delivery coverage, workforce and evidence of outcomes before the future tender is issued.
