The procurement is classified under the health and social work services industry category, specifically focusing on enhancing local care by implementing a neighbourhood model aligned with primary care networks. Interested providers are required to respond to a survey by 2pm on 18th September 2020, which will inform the next steps before the tender is officially published at the end of October or early November 2020. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to engage in the home care sector within London. Businesses specialising in health and social services that possess the capability to provide high-quality care while adhering to fixed pricing could thrive in this competitive environment, particularly given the Council's focus on quality over price in the tender assessment process. This initiative aims to foster local partnerships and resilience, especially in light of ongoing challenges such as Covid-19 and winter pressures. ## Notice Dear Providers, We are undertaking a brief survey to inform Lambeth council's Home Care procurement next steps - please see link https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/69KTTT6 Please could you submit your response before 2pm on the 18th of September 2020. Lambeth Council are planning to tender their home care services at the end of October/ early November 2020. The Council will be introducing a neighbourhood model with ten localities. The localities will be aligned with neighbourhood nursing and primary care networks and contracts will be awarded for a specific locality. The tender will be a two stage, restricted tender. The Invitation to Tender will be assessed on 100% quality. There will be no price evaluation, as a set rate prescribed by the Council will apply to all providers. The set rate has been developed in line with the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services ( ADASS) price modelling principles. The procurement was originally intended to be published around March/April but was postponed to enable the Council and the provider market to focus on the management of Covid-19 implications in the critical early stages. As we have observed providers successfully managing Covid-19 considerations and ensuring continuity of care, we have decided to recommence the procurement process. In recognition of the ongoing impact of Covid-19 and winter pressures, we will incorporate deadlines that are longer than the minimum tender requirements, with approximately seven weeks to complete the Standard Selection Questionnaire and a further seven week deadline for providers invited to tender (ITT). I would appreciate if you could respond to the two key questions on survey monkey about the planned procurement date and the inclusion of a fixed rate, please see link https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/69KTTT6 If you have any difficulties with survey monkey please contact Carole Ferguson - cferguson@lambeth.gov.uk ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bcf7cb9c-e9f2-494d-b98f-06b35c2e1c2a | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Sep 2020 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 18 Sep 2020 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | 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 | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF LAMBETH | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW2 1RW | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI45 Lambeth | | Local authority | Lambeth | | Electoral ward | Brixton Acre Lane | | Westminster constituency | Clapham and Brixton Hill | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 10 Sep 2020 at 09:02 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bcf7cb9c-e9f2-494d-b98f-06b35c2e1c2a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/bcf7cb9c-e9f2-494d-b98f-06b35c2e1c2a 10th September 2020 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/69KTTT6 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
