## Summary

Cornwall Council has initiated a planning process for a significant public procurement opportunity titled "Accelerating the Delivery of Residential and Nursing Care Homes in Cornwall." This project falls under the social work services with accommodation industry category and aims to address the increasing demand for care home placements in the region. The estimated budget for this undertaking is £2.5 billion, with the procurement process timeline noting the future notice date as 3rd March 2025, and the contract period commencing on 1st August 2025 and concluding on 31st July 2028. This project, planned under the council's newly approved approach to commission care home developments, seeks to deliver an additional 3,725 care home units by 2050 across England.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in residential and nursing care home construction and management. Given the significant investment and long-term nature of the contract, larger enterprises with extensive experience and resources will be well-suited to compete. The project will not only contribute to the growth of the businesses involved but also foster the expansion of job opportunities within the care sector. As the council aims to enter into long-term contracts, companies with a robust track record in delivering large-scale care facilities and associated services will find this procurement particularly conducive to sustained growth and development.

## Notice

In 2023, the Council published its Supported and Specialist Housing Strategy, Cornwall Supported & Specialist Housing Strategy 2023-2050 which sets out the future demand for services. This future procurement is included in the scope of the strategy and its implementation plan. The demand for Care Home placements can be seen in our Market Position Statements Our Adult Social Care Strategies - Cornwall Council In summary the future demand for Care Homes, both Residential and Nursing, is estimated to be an additional 3,725 units by 2050. In May 2024 the Council's Cabinet approved a new approach to how we commission Care Home developments and associated services through a single end to end process. This approach will enable the Council to enter into long-term contracts for the delivery of care. Additional information: New PIN market engagement notice which replaces the Residential and Nursing Care Homes element of the previously published combined notice for Care Homes and Extra Care. Cornwall's future requirements for Care Homes and Extra Care will now be run as two separate exercises.
