This initiative is poised to re-open the framework established two years ago for individuals with learning disabilities, autistic spectrum conditions, and acquired brain injuries. The tender is currently in the active bidding stage, with submissions due by midday on 25th June 2019. The total value of this opportunity is £25 million, and the contract will commence on 9th October 2019, lasting until 8th October 2021. The procurement method adopted for this process is an open procedure. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in care and support services, particularly those catering to individuals with special needs. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are particularly well-suited to participate, given their expertise and capacity to deliver tailored services. By engaging in this procurement process, successful bidders can secure a position on a framework that could lead to ongoing contracts, thereby establishing a stronger foothold in the public sector and expanding their service offerings in the community. ## Notice Wakefield Council is re-opening the Framework for the provision of district wide care and support services for people with Learning Disabilities, Autistic Spectrum Conditions and Acquired Brain Injuries. Packages of care are commissioned from the Framework on a spot purchase basis for individuals or via mini competition for larger, more complex packages involving multiple service users. The Framework offers no guarantee of any level or value of business to any Service Provider appointed onto the Framework. The procurement documentation used to setup the My Life Services Framework Agreement that was issued by the Council on 28 June 2017 informed potential bidders that the Council was to re-open the Framework at the 2 year point so that new providers may join. Therefore this procurement process is being undertaken in order to appoint new providers for the final 2 years of the Framework Agreement. The same application process and evaluation criteria as detailed in the original Invitation to Tender is being used for the procurement process. Previous applicants may apply. Existing Providers appointed to the Framework do not need to re-apply; their position on the Framework Agreement will remain in force. The procurement documents are available from the YORtender website www.yortender.co.uk with reference DN281470.
