## Summary

Staffordshire County Council has initiated a tender process titled "Residential and Nursing Care Home Services" in the Health and social work services category. The Council has established a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for care home services, split into ten different lots catering to various needs. The procurement involves Call Off Contracts awarded under the DPS Agreement between 11 December 2022 and 10 March 2023. The contract period is set to extend until April 2024, providing opportunities for SMEs and VCSEs to participate in selective procurement.

This procurement by Staffordshire County Council offers business growth opportunities for organisations providing residential and nursing care home services. Companies specialised in healthcare, particularly those catering to older people, dementia, physical disability, mental health, among others, are well-suited to compete. The extension of the contract period until April 2024 implies a stable revenue stream for successful bidders, aligning with the Council's commitment to providing quality care through a structured procurement process.

## Notice

Staffordshire County Council (the Council) has put in place a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) arrangement for the provision of residential and nursing care home services for its clients. The Council has received applications to join the DPS from providers registered with the Care Quality Commission and has entered into a DPS Agreement for the provision of Residential and Nursing Care Home Services (the DPS Agreement) with each of the successful applicants in respect of one or more of ten lots. The DPS arrangement will remain open up to 30 September 2019 with an option to extend for a further two years and the Council will continue to receive and consider applications to join the DPS until such closing date. The DPS is split into the ten (10) lots described below: Lot: 1: Residential - Older People Lot 2: Residential - Dementia Lot 3: Residential - Physical Disability / Sensory Impairment Lot 4: Residential - Learning Disability / Autistic Spectrum Disorder Lot 5: Residential - Mental Health Lot 6: Nursing - Older People Lot 7: Nursing - Dementia Lot 8: Nursing - Physical Disability / Sensory Impairment Lot 9: Nursing - Learning Disability / Autistic Spectrum Disorder Lot 10: Nursing - Mental Health Invitations to Tender for Call Off Contracts under the DPS Agreement commenced on 11 December 2017. This Contract Award Notice relates to Call Off Contracts which have been awarded under the DPS Agreement with effect from 11 December 2022 to 10 March 2023 (inclusive). Additional information: The Council has decided to exercise its option under clause 2.3 of the DPS Contract to further extend the Contract Period in accordance with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (as amended from time to time). The Council proposes to extend the Contract Period from 9 April 2023 up to the date in April 2024 immediately prior to the implementation by the Department for Work and Pensions of its adjustment to state benefits, which we anticipate will be 14 April 2024.
