## Summary

Leicester City Council is conducting a tender (ASC0257 - Supported Living Services) to procure supported living services for various groups, including individuals with learning disabilities, dementia, and complex needs. This procurement process is currently in the tender phase, with submissions accepted until 11th December 2019. The initiative falls under the Light Touch Regime for social services, allowing for a degree of flexibility in evaluation, similar to an open procedure. The contract is expected to commence on 2nd November 2020 and will last for an initial term of five years, with potential extensions, and covers the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in health and social care services. Businesses prepared to provide enablement support for people with learning disabilities, elder care services, or specialist services for individuals with complex needs could find this tender especially relevant. The framework is designed to allow multiple providers to be awarded contracts, fostering a competitive environment conducive to business expansion in the social services sector.

## Notice

Leicester City Council ('the 'Authority') invites Tenders for the provision of Supported Living Services ("the Services"). Up to a maximum number of providers to be awarded for each Lot as follows: Lot 1 - Enablement Supported Living Services for people with Learning Disability and Mental Health (up to 15 providers). Lot 2 - Living Well Supported Living Services for older people and people living with dementia (up to 5 providers).

The initial term of the Framework Agreements for Lot 1, Lot 2, Lot 3 and Lot 4 is 5 years from the Service Commencement Date 2nd November 2020 and expire on 2nd November 2025, with the option to extend for 2 further periods of up to no more than 24 months in total i.e. potentially 7 years from and including the Service Commencement Date. The initial term of the Lot 5 block contract is 5 years from the Service Commencement Date 2nd November 2020 and expire on 2nd November 2025, with the option to extend for 2 further periods of up to no more than 24 months in total i.e. potentially 7 years from and including the Service Commencement Date. It is the Authority's preliminary view that TUPE may apply in respect of these Contracts. A Tenderers Information Session is being held on the 14th Nov 2019. Further details regarding how to register for this session is contained within the Invitation to Tender documentation. The Authority is conducting this procurement under the Light Touch Regime for Social and Other Specific Services, as set out in the Public Contract Regulations 2015, at Section 7 (Regulations 74 to 77) and Schedule 3. The procurement process will not be conducted under the Public Contract Regulations 2015; however, it will be similar to that of an Open procedure. The Process will, unlike an Open Procedure, include the flexibility, as allowed under the Light Touch Regime with various evaluation stages as detailed in this Invitation to Tender documentation.
