## Summary

Cambridgeshire County Council is overseeing a procurement process titled "Cambridgeshire County Council Home and Community Support Services" within the health and social work services sector. This initiative targets residents of Cambridgeshire with eligible social care needs, as well as those from Royston in Hertfordshire registered with Cambridgeshire GPs. The procurement is currently in the award stage, after a tender period that concluded on 31 January 2020. The total contract value is £300,000,000, and the contract period extends from 2 March 2020 to 2 November 2027. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, facilitated under a pseudo-Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) providing flexibility for ongoing provider applications.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in home care and community support services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) that may wish to expand their operations. Companies equipped to deliver health and social work services in the East of England region should consider applying or reapplying to this DPS as it reopens periodically. Engaging in this contract can foster business growth by tapping into a robust demand for essential social care services, thereby enhancing community support for vulnerable populations.

## Notice

Cambridgeshire County Council and Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) are tendered for home care and community support services for: - All residents of Cambridgeshire who are identified as having eligible social care needs, and; - All residents of Cambridgeshire and Royston in Hertfordshire where individuals are registered with a Cambridgeshire GP, and are eligible for NHS fully funded Continuing Health Care (CHC) and Joint Funded Health Care from Cambridgeshire and Peterborough CCG. The Commissioners have set up a 'pseudo-Dynamic Purchasing System' (DPS) under the 'Light Touch' provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
