UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Cannock Chase District Council is procuring private occupational therapy services to support customers referred for assessments of need under the Disabled Facilities Grant framework. The service covers general contract administration, occupational therapy assessments, professional occupational therapy support, and training for clients and carers delivered by an occupational therapist. This is a health and social work service, with delivery in the Cannock Chase area of Staffordshire. Staffordshire County Council is facilitating the procurement process. The requirement is suitable for occupational therapy practices, independent occupational therapists and other specialist providers able to deliver assessment and support services for people whose housing or daily living needs may require assistance through Disabled Facilities Grants.

The process has reached tender: the council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. It is a single-lot service contract, with electronic submission allowed through the Proactis supplier portal. Enquiries had to be submitted by 10 September 2026 at 16:00, and offers by 17 September 2026 at 12:00. The contract period is 16 November 2026 to 15 November 2029, with three optional 12-month extensions at the council’s sole discretion, allowing a maximum end date of 15 November 2032. The estimated value is £430,000 excluding VAT, or £516,000 including VAT. Offers will be evaluated on quality at 40% and price at 60%.

This opportunity suits small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises as well as established occupational therapy providers. Suppliers need to provide a private occupational therapy service covering administration, needs assessments, professional support, and training for clients and carers. The stated participation conditions require occupational therapists to hold Royal College of Occupational Therapists membership or an equivalent qualification, and registration with the Health and Care Professions Council. Providers should therefore have the professional standing and operational capacity to manage referrals, undertake occupational therapy assessments, support the council’s customers, and deliver training. It is relevant to organisations already working across occupational therapy, housing-related support or Disabled Facilities Grant assessment services.
