The service comes under the Health and social work services category (CPV: 85000000) and will be provided in the Chichester area (PO19 1RQ), located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement procedure is currently at the Tender stage, with the tender period closing on 23rd September 2024. Contract commencement is slated for 1st April 2025, ending on 31st March 2031. This open procedure targets potential service providers with a substantive contract value of £59,257,500. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare and social support services, especially those that are SMEs or VCSEs, to expand their operations by partnering with West Sussex County Council. The council is looking for service providers who can deliver flexible, responsive, and outcome-focused reablement services. Companies experienced in working with diverse support needs, including physical disabilities, mental health issues, and neurological conditions, will find this contract particularly suited to their expertise. Engaging in this tender process could significantly enhance the provider's portfolio and secure a long-term relationship with the council, particularly given the alignment with NHS Intermediate Care Services. ## Notice Reablement is a strengths-based, person-centred approach, supporting an individual to regain skills, or gain new/alternative skills and confidence to enable a person to remain living independently or with less support in their own home. The Community Reablement Service will be provided to customers to support them to maintain, retain or regain daily living skills and abilities to reach their maximum level of independence to remain in their own home independently or with less support. As part of The Councils approach, we will assume that reablement is to be considered as the default starting position for all new customers and only moving to long-term care where reablement has been confirmed as not appropriate. There is a clear expectation that the Service Provider and the Council will work closely together to ensure the Service is delivering positive Outcomes for individuals identified for reablement and to deliver a responsive and flexible Service. The Council wants to ensure a broad group of people can access the Community Reablement Service. Therefore, Customers receiving the Community Reablement Service may have a varying range of care, behavioural, communication, mobility and / or support needs relating - but not limited to - physical disabilities, learning disability, acquired brain injury, neurological conditions, mental health, and other long-term conditions and including double handed care support. The key objectives of the Service are: 1. Enable individuals to remain living independently in their usual place of residence. 2. Provide person centred time limited, reabling support for individuals which meets their needs and Outcomes. 3. Deliver Outcome-focussed, strength-based interventions that prevent, reduce, and delay the need for care and support. 4. Maintain Customer's independence at home. 5. Facilitate discharge from hospital at the optimum time for the individual thereby reducing hospital acquired decline. 6. Work in partnership with key partners to ensure a streamlined and coordinated experience for the Customer. 7. Develop strong relationships and pathways with other community services to ensure individuals are supported to remain living independently at home beyond the reablement intervention period. Throughout the life of this contract, the Community Reablement Service will become more closely aligned with Intermediate Care Services, known as Intermediate Care and Primary Care Services. The Council is working towards improved intermediate care provision with NHS partners. The Reablement service is acknowledged as being an essential part of the integrated care system which will continually work across system health and social pathways to achieve the best Outcomes for residents. Full details of the services required can be found in Document 02 the Service Specification. This includes a substantive list of all the aims, outcomes, and requirements that will make up the provision of these service. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8fd04add-46d2-4398-a721-7eb53f94e94a | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Aug 2024 | | Submission deadline | 23 Sep 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2025 - 31 Mar 2031 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £59,257,500 | | 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 | WEST SUSSEX COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | CHICHESTER | | Post town | Portsmouth | | Postcode | PO19 1RQ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ2 Surrey, East and West Sussex | | ITL 3 | TLJ27 West Sussex (South West) | | Local authority | Chichester | | Electoral ward | Chichester Central | | Westminster constituency | Chichester | | Delivery location | TLJ South East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 9 Aug 2024 at 11:23 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8fd04add-46d2-4398-a721-7eb53f94e94a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8fd04add-46d2-4398-a721-7eb53f94e94a 9th August 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
