## Summary

Herefordshire Council is facilitating a procurement process titled "A Framework for Care Experienced Young People offer of local accommodation and support," aimed at improving local services for care-experienced youth. This tender is classified under "Renting or leasing services of own property" and falls within the health and social work services category. The procurement method used is an open procedure, with the tender period having ended on 5th November 2021. The contract period is set to commence on 1st April 2022 and conclude on 31st March 2026, and it entailed a total estimated value of £2,000,000 for the services provided. Interested parties could apply for either of the two Lots: Accommodation (excluding Support) or Support exclusively for Care Leavers.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in accommodation and support services tailored for young people. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to engage in this tender, allowing them to contribute to vital community services while potentially expanding their operations. By participating in this framework, businesses can secure ongoing contracts through mini competitions, providing a sustainable avenue for growth in the social care sector.

## Notice

The council is seeking to run a procurement with Local Landlords and Support Providers, to offer their services via a Framework to the council. The Framework will help achieve an improved and sustained local accommodation and support offer to care experienced young people. Applicants accepted onto the Framework will be in a position to apply through a mini competition to offer their service(s) of accommodation and/or support to our care experienced young people. The tender will be let as a framework consisting of two separate Lots as identified below. Providers will be permitted to bid for a single Lot or for both Lots together: Lot 1: Accommodation (excluding Support) Lot 2: Support only for Care leavers The Framework will be established under the Light Touch Regime and therefore applies the flexibilities afforded under regulation 76 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. These flexibilities include the re-opening of the Framework to allow new entrants periodically. Given the nature of the supported accommodation and to maintain a viable framework, it is necessary to allow new entrants to enter the Framework periodically (at the discretion of the council and subject to service needs.) If you are interested in bidding for this opportunity please go to www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk and search under Herefordshire Council to access the tender documents and submit your bid.
