This procurement falls under the health and social work services industry category and is currently in the Tender stage. The tender period closes on 8th January 2020, while the contract is set to commence on 1st April 2020 and run for five years, with the possibility of a three-year extension. The procurement method is an open procedure, with the aim to establish a pseudo Framework Agreement allowing multiple service providers to meet the area's care needs. This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in home care services. With an expectation to purchase around 7,000 hours of care weekly and a commitment to developing the market for home-based care, potential providers can leverage this opportunity to enhance their service offerings and expand into a growing sector. Businesses experienced in delivering welfare services, especially those not confined to residential institutions, would be well-suited to compete in this market. ## Notice Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust (the "Trust") along with its partners Torbay Council (the "Council") and NHS Devon Clinical Commissioning Group (the "CCG"), collectively known as the "Partners", are procuring a Living Well @ Home (regulated home based care/domiciliary care) service for Torbay. The Trust intends to let a pseudo Framework Agreement under Regulations 74 to 77 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (Light Touch Regime). The Trust are seeking to contract with a number of home care Providers through a pseudo open framework agreement from 1st April 2020 for 5 years with the option to extend for a further 3 years. We currently purchase circa 7,000 hours per week and we need to develop our market to fill outstanding packages of care. We anticipate opening the procurement annually/as and when required for new applicants and/or lots, extending the scope beyond standard home based care/domiciliary care. The Trust is issuing an Invitation to Participate ahead of the final specifications and confirmation of rates. This will allow potential Providers to familiarising themselves with the relevant Selection Questionnaire and Award Criteria Questions. At a later date the Trust will issue the final specification and rates, and then set the date and time for the closure of this Contract Notice. We will provide potential Providers a reasonable amount of time to formalise their response. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/28bedcd9-3f35-4e81-b531-71f40b25e1e1 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 16 Nov 2019 | | Submission deadline | 8 Jan 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2020 - 31 Mar 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | NHS SOUTH WEST - ACUTES | | Locality | TORQUAY | | Post town | Torquay | | Postcode | TQ2 7AA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK4 Devon | | ITL 3 | TLK42 Torbay | | Local authority | Torbay | | Electoral ward | Shiphay | | Westminster constituency | Torbay | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85140000 - Miscellaneous health services - 85312400 - Welfare services not delivered through residential institutions ## Release History - 16 Nov 2019 at 16:31 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/28bedcd9-3f35-4e81-b531-71f40b25e1e1 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/28bedcd9-3f35-4e81-b531-71f40b25e1e1 16th November 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=30965&B=NHSSW Procurement documents are only available via the above link. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
