Pathway 2 Residential Short Stay Beds provide short-term residential care for people who are medically optimised for discharge from hospital but are unable to return home, therefore requiring a short stay in a care home setting to support their recovery and time for assessment for future needs. People will stay in the service until their assessment and ongoing arrangements have been determined. Moving On Beds: are for people that are medically fit for discharge and can return home but require further support and time before this can take place. People that use a MOB typically return home once environmental or social issues are resolved and have an average length of stay of 6 weeks. D2A Short Stay Beds: are for people that are medically fit for discharge whose needs have increased since their admission to hospital meaning they are unable to return to their normal place of residence. They require assessment and time to recover to understand their future requirements, whether this is to return home or to go into long term care. People that use a D2A Short Stay Bed have an average length of stay of 4 weeks. The Council is seeking to award approximately 52 D2A short stay beds and 8 Moving on beds across three Place areas in Warwickshire, these being North Warwickshire, Rugby and South Warwickshire.", "items": [ { "id": "1", "additionalClassifications": [ { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "85300000", "description": "Social work and related services" } ], "deliveryAddresses": [ { "region": "UKG", "country": "GB", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, { "region": "UKG13", "country": "GB", "countryName": "United Kingdom" } ], "relatedLot": "1" } ], "value": { "amountGross": 34777770, "currency": "GBP", "amount": 28981475 }, "mainProcurementCategory": "services", "specialRegime": [ "lightTouch" ], "aboveThreshold": true, "lots": [ { "id": "1", "contractPeriod": { "startDate": "2026-09-01T00:00:00+01:00", "endDate": "2031-08-31T23:59:59+01:00", "maxExtentDate": "2036-08-31T23:59:59+01:00" }, "status": "active", "value": { "amountGross": 34777770, "amount": 28981475, "currency": "GBP" }, "awardCriteria": { "criteria": [ { "type": "cost", "name": "Cost", "description": "20% with pass/fail threshold.", "numbers": [ { "number": 20, "weight": "percentageExact" } ] }, { "type": "quality", "name": "Quality (Non-cost)", "description": "80% with pass/fail threshold.", "numbers": [ { "number": 80, "weight": "percentageExact" } ] } ] }, "suitability": { "sme": true, "vcse": true }, "hasRenewal": true, "renewal": { "description": "The initial contract term will be for 5 years however the Council reserves the right to extend the contract by further periods not exceeding 60 months (60 months being the maximum available extension period) at the discretion of the Council based on the contract performance of the successful applicant." }, "hasOptions": true, "options": { "description": "The Council expects to be flexibly purchasing up to 9 Pathway 2 Residential Short Stay Beds at any one time in addition to the 60 block beds, although the number of flexible beds that WCC are able to purchase is subject to change during the life of this contract.
