## Summary

The procurement process involves Coventry City Council and Coventry and Rugby Clinical Commissioning Group (CRCCG) seeking to establish a framework for Emergency Short Term Home Support services due to the urgent needs arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. The contract, which falls under the health and social work services category, is set to run from 8 April 2020 to 31 March 2021. The tender process, classified as open, required submissions to be returned by 10 am on 6 April 2020, with the awards announced on 8 April 2020. The principal location for service provision is Coventry, UK, and the total contract value is £200,000.

This tender presents a significant growth opportunity for businesses operating in the healthcare sector, particularly those providing home support services. Companies that specialise in elderly care, hospital discharge services, and emergency response capabilities would be particularly well-suited to participate in this contract. Additionally, smaller enterprises may benefit from the framework as the suitability criteria indicate a bias towards small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), allowing them to compete alongside larger organisations in delivering these essential services.

## Notice

The Commissioner (Coventry City Council and Coventry and Rugby Clinical Commissioning Group (CRCCG)) is looking to establish a Framework for emergency cover for short term home support services for adults across the City. The Service will bolster existing contracted provision, which is already in place with 3 contracted Providers. This requirement is as a direct result of COVID-19, where it has been identified that additional capacity will be needed to ensure services can be delivered to vulnerable service users. The service is primarily to support hospital discharge. The COVID-19 outbreak has given rise to an urgent need for the specified service. This does not give the Council sufficient time to comply with the usual timescales for this procurement. The Council considers this to be a state of urgency which it has duly substantiated. Accordingly, accelerated time limits, as permitted under the Public Contract Regulations 2015, and as permissible under the Light Touch Regime, are used in respect of this procurement. Therefore, Tender return timescales are - Monday 6th April 2020 - Time: 10am
