Note: The Services required under this procurement fall within Schedule 3 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102), hence the Authority is not bound by all of the prescriptive requirements of the said Regulations. The Authority therefore reserves the right to follow its own modified version of the process prescribed under Regulation 34 of the said Regulations for admitting candidates to the DPS and awarding contracts thereunder. Within each Zone, there is a requirement for a number of Service Types: * Home Care including waking nights, sleeping nights and live in care * Continuing Health Care * Continuing Health Care Complex Providers can apply to work in both Zones if they wish or only one, and similarly Providers can choose which Service Types they apply for within each Zone. Providers do not have to cover a full zone if they do not wish to as over the course of the DPS, we want providers to collaborate to deliver all the care needs in a Zone. There is no limit on the number of Providers we will accept on to this Dynamic Rural Purchasing System. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8e1a02bc-3f52-45ba-9716-5b42c5ad1330 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | 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 | 27 Apr 2018 | | Submission deadline | 7 May 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 May 2018 - 30 Sep 2023 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £60,000,000 | | 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 | GLOUCESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | GLOUCESTER | | Post town | Gloucester | | Postcode | GL1 2TG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK7 Gloucestershire and Wiltshire | | ITL 3 | TLK73 Gloucestershire CC | | Local authority | Gloucester | | Electoral ward | Westgate | | Westminster constituency | Gloucester | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 27 Apr 2018 at 14:04 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8e1a02bc-3f52-45ba-9716-5b42c5ad1330 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8e1a02bc-3f52-45ba-9716-5b42c5ad1330 27th April 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=e8786b96-9227-e811-80eb-005056b64545 Advert ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
