This procurement falls under the health and social work services category and has an estimated contract value of £166 million. The tender is part of the Leicestershire Children and Families Services Gateway2Resources initiative and is currently in the planning stage, with a tender period that is set to conclude on 30th November 2030, followed by a contract period starting on 1st December 2030. This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations that specialize in providing supported accommodation and related services. Businesses with experience in catering to the needs of looked-after children, care leavers, or young people at risk of homelessness will be particularly well-suited to apply. Collaborating with the Council aims to ensure high-quality placements are available locally, opening avenues for innovative service delivery and potential expansion into partnerships with other local authorities in the future. ## Notice Please Note: This DPS is not suitable for Supported Living (as defined by CQC) providers or Domiciliary Care providers. Leicestershire County Council (the Council) is conducting a procurement to establish a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) in accordance with the requirements of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) (PCR 2015). The Council is inviting suitably experienced and qualified Providers to submit tenders to apply to join the Leicestershire Children and Families Services Gateway2Resources (G2R) Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to provide accommodation and support by supplying Supported Accommodation placements and support to Leicestershire's Looked After Children (LAC), Care Leavers, Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children (UASC) and Young People (at risk of homelessness) not owed a social care duty between the ages of 16-18. The Council wishes to work collaboratively with Providers to ensure that placement requirements for Leicestershire's LAC cohort can meet demand and need. We are requesting that providers apply to join the DPS and work with the Council's vision to ensure that Leicestershire young people can live locally and are offered high quality, value for money placements. The DPS will consist of two categories; Supported Shared Accommodation for young people aged 16+, and; Independent Accommodation with Floating Support for young people aged 16+ ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/11ea66e5-14a6-4814-b274-267a018d73c6 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Feb 2022 | | Submission deadline | 30 Nov 2030 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Dec 2030 - 2 Dec 2030 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £166,000,000 | | 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 | LEICESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | LEICESTER | | Post town | Leicester | | Postcode | LE3 8RA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF22 Leicestershire CC and Rutland | | Local authority | Blaby | | Electoral ward | Glenfield Faire | | Westminster constituency | Mid Leicestershire | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 10 Feb 2022 at 10:42 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/11ea66e5-14a6-4814-b274-267a018d73c6 - 21 Aug 2020 at 12:05 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/58c785aa-ef5a-4ccf-9e00-9614935cd06c ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/11ea66e5-14a6-4814-b274-267a018d73c6 10th February 2022 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/58c785aa-ef5a-4ccf-9e00-9614935cd06c 21st August 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=13aaae77-a0e3-ea11-8104-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - https://www.eastmidstenders.org/index.html ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
