This open procedure tender had a scheduled end date for submissions on 10th September 2018 and a contract period running from 11th September 2018 to 30th June 2021. The estimated value of the contract is £5,031,996 and is classified under health and social work services. This tender offers significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary/community sector enterprises (VCSEs) focused on health, social care, and support services. Businesses that provide tailored care plans, training for carers, or organisational support services for community care are especially well-positioned to compete for this contract, enabling them to expand their reach and impact within the community. ## Notice The Carers Service is intended to support Carers in their caring role. Cornwall Council is procuring this service on behalf of the Council and NHS Kernow. Broadly a Carer is "somebody who provides support or who looks after a family member, partner or friend who needs help because of their age, physical or mental illness, or disability. This would not usually include someone paid or employed to carry out that role, or someone who is a volunteer" (Care Act, 2014). Cornwall Council and NHS Kernow will ensure that all Carers are able to access a range of personalised services to support them in their role and to help the people they care for remain independent and within their own homes and communities. Fundamental to this, is ensuring that all Carers are identified early and have access to quality information and advice as well as a Carers assessment and Carers support plans. The support plan recognises and values their caring role and the contribution they make but also identifies the outcomes that they need to meet to enable them to have a life outside of their caring role and manage their health and wellbeing. According to the 2011 Census, 63,192 people in Cornwall stated they provided unpaid care. When compared to the South West (SW), and England and Wales (EN&W) Census data; it is evident that the number of Cornwall's unpaid Carers is above both regional and national levels. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a3e1ba2c-5549-4bee-a687-99483440445e | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Sep 2018 | | Submission deadline | 10 Sep 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 10 Sep 2018 - 30 Jun 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £5,031,996 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL COUNCIL | | Locality | TRURO | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR1 3AY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Truro Boscawen & Redannick | | Westminster constituency | Truro and Falmouth | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 10 Sep 2018 at 08:28 - TenderCancellation - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a3e1ba2c-5549-4bee-a687-99483440445e - 10 Sep 2018 at 08:27 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8891959d-b06a-45e6-9a42-4831695178e9 - 18 Nov 2016 at 20:16 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8891959d-b06a-45e6-9a42-4831695178e9 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a3e1ba2c-5549-4bee-a687-99483440445e 10th September 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8891959d-b06a-45e6-9a42-4831695178e9 10th September 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/bbb8f71c-f973-4136-bbe4-0ec5047ef383 Invitation to Tender documentation - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ca77fdb9-1c0e-4bb6-ba50-721d9b9ddc5d Clarification Log 23.03.2016 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/160943dc-74d7-4af6-acaa-807ee3f1d730 Clarification Log published 15.03.16 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/480a0dcb-652f-4d78-9ddd-34671d8e70e4 Clarification Log - version 1 01/03/2016 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/8838e286-78b8-415c-b908-0fb643f81af3 Invitation to Tender documentation - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/1647e53b-e35f-4f29-8be3-0d1be28d7bb5 Clarification Log 23.03.2016 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f987c2d5-b4b1-4579-90dc-90d95d347b86 Clarification Log published 15.03.16 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/4405c8dd-99f7-4495-a7dc-8d4bdf54f9c0 Clarification Log - version 1 01/03/2016 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/ba1b4e44-542b-4896-8b6e-36d1af33b18a Invitation to Tender documentation - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/e457de38-3d29-45d3-af9b-0ac12e8c66d5 Clarification Log 23.03.2016 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/39d7d704-8888-4917-a53d-c4468e3da39f Clarification Log published 15.03.16 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/3c039ac6-fea2-42fa-8b77-77e17b3abb13 Clarification Log - version 1 01/03/2016 ## Notice URLs - http://www.cornwall.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
