## Summary

Wakefield Council is soliciting bids for the "My Life - My Life PDSP" project, aimed at establishing a Pseudo Dynamic Purchasing System for the delivery of care and support services. This procurement falls within the health and social care sector, specifically under welfare services not delivered through residential institutions, with an estimated budget of £93 million. The initial contract period is set to commence on 9th April 2022 and run until 8th April 2027, with a potential option to extend for an additional five years. Interested parties were able to submit questionnaires for assessment within the first 30 days of the tender notice publication, with ongoing opportunities for submissions available since 9th April 2022.
