The contract, valued at approximately £53.33 million, is part of a larger procurement initiative aimed at securing 106 additional units to be operational within 18 months and 243 immediate units. The contracts span an initial period of five years, with an option for extension totaling up to 15 years. The procurement followed an open procedure, with significant demand anticipated in East Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire, and South Cambridgeshire. This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for providers in the health and social care services sector, particularly those capable of extending or renovating existing facilities, or constructing new establishments. Businesses that currently hold spot-purchased contracts with the Council or those capable of offering additional capacity can benefit significantly from this tender, leveraging the long-term nature of the contracts to foster stability and expansion in their operations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate. ## Notice At present, in Cambridgeshire we have a projected shortfall high quality affordable beds across the market. In order to meet the capacity requirements, the Council intends to procure 106 additional units through block contract arrangements that the Authority expects will be available within 18 months of contract award. This opportunity would suit providers who are interested in/planning on carrying out an extension or renovation to a home(s) to increase capacity in East Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire and South Cambridgeshire or carry out a new build in these areas.The Authority will assess Potential Providers' mobilisation plans to ensure that they are robust and deliver units within this timeframe. In addition, the Authority is aiming to procure 243 block contracted units in Cambridgeshire that will be available immediately after the award of contract. This would suit providers that currently have spot-purchased contracts with the Authority (where a Council funded service user is placed outside of a block contract), but wish to take up the opportunity of a block contract. It would also suit providers who the Authority do not currently commission from but have the ability to offer capacity. The contracts are for an initial period of 5 years with options to extend for up to a further 10 years, making 15 years in total.
