## Summary

St. Helens Council is conducting an open tender for the opportunity to join its existing framework of approved suppliers for the provision of domiciliary care services. The procurement is focused on health and social work services, with a total contract value of £400,000. The tender is currently active and is set to close on 28th April 2017. Contracts awarded through this process will commence from 1st June 2017 and will last until 31st May 2019. The delivery address for the services is based in the North West region of England.

This tender offers significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs) to expand their service offerings in the domiciliary care sector. Businesses that possess the capacity to provide home care services, especially those that utilise electronic call monitoring systems, would be particularly well-suited to participate. By becoming an approved supplier, these organisations can gain access to a steady stream of contracts through the mini-competition process, facilitating potential growth and establishing valuable connections within the local authority framework.

Those placed on the Approved List will be awarded a contract for the Provision of Domiciliary Care. The Approved List will have two tiers of provider - Tier 1 - those who utilise an appropriate electronic call monitoring system Tier 2 - those without electronic call monitoring From 1st December 2016 the award of each new package of care is subject to a mini competition which will only be open to providers on the Approved List and with a contract awarded by this process.
