This open tender is classified under the services industry, specifically in welfare services not provided through residential institutions. The tender period closes on 14th February 2017 at 12:00 hours, with a contract commencement date planned for 1st July 2017 and a duration extending until 30th June 2020. Bidders must be aware that contract performance will entail considerations of sustainable development, including social and environmental impacts. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in social care services, particularly those specialising in mental health, learning disabilities, or autism support.

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the council expresses an interest in fostering diverse competitive bids to generate the most effective solution for the community's needs. ## Notice Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking a contractor or a partnership of contractors to deliver an integrated support service, dependent on the quality of bids received. The service will be primarily for people with support needs that arise from or are related to mental impairment or illness (this may include mental health, learning disability, learning difficulty or autism) and which are considered beneath the national eligibility criteria as set out in the Care Act 2014, whose independence is threatened due to a crisis situation, posing a heightened risk of homelessness, hospitalisation and becoming eligible for statutory care. This would also include step-down from hospital, community mental health teams and statutory social care. Additional information: The successful Contractor(s) are required to take account of sustainable development e.g. environmental, social and economic impacts of delivery and to actively participate in the protection of the environment.
