The tender is currently at the active stage, with a submission deadline set for 22 January 2018. The contract is valued at £40 million and is intended to run from 1 May 2018 to 30 April 2028. The services will primarily be delivered in the East of England, allowing no additional locations for service provision. This tender presents substantial opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in care services, particularly those focused on health promotion and supporting individuals with learning disabilities. Businesses that can deliver innovative, independent living solutions and demonstrate a commitment to health and wellbeing are particularly well-suited to compete in this tender process. The 'Open Framework' approach allows for ongoing participation, encouraging both new and previously unsuccessful providers to apply and contribute to enhancing care for service users. ## Notice Cambridgeshire County Council is commissioning Day Opportunities for Adults with a Learning Disability. Providers must recognise the role they play in ensuring that people with learning disabilities experience the good health and wellbeing necessary to live a meaningful life. Providers should be aware that there are higher incidences of long term conditions, and other health problems, experienced by people with learning disabilities and prioritise preventative and palliative services and support to minimise potential impacts to service users. As such staff must have sufficient and appropriate training and skills to effectively engage people with learning disabilities in health promotion. The Council is trying to move towards a model that helps people to live as independently as possible at all levels of need, so the focus is on progression. Peterborough City Council may call-off this Framework for service users they have assessed as eligible using their own criteria. Additional information: This is an 'Open Framework', which means that it will re-open at intervals for new and previously unsuccessful providers to apply to join. This is under the 'Light Touch' provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (Chapter 3, Section 7- Social and Other Specific Services). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/422d1f7e-6abf-4307-9380-ab3a6a8ca3b6 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 Dec 2017 | | Submission deadline | 22 Jan 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Apr 2018 - 30 Apr 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £40,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CAMBRIDGESHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | CAMBRIDGE | | Post town | Cambridge | | Postcode | CB3 0AP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH4 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough | | ITL 3 | TLH42 Cambridgeshire CC | | Local authority | Cambridge | | Electoral ward | Castle | | Westminster constituency | Cambridge | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 13 Dec 2017 at 13:59 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/422d1f7e-6abf-4307-9380-ab3a6a8ca3b6 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/422d1f7e-6abf-4307-9380-ab3a6a8ca3b6 13th December 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://www.lgssprocurementportal.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
