This procurement falls under the social work services industry, specifically classified as CPV code 85312000, and is located in the West Midlands, England. The tender period closes on 27th November 2019, and the contract is set to commence on 16th May 2020, lasting for three years with the possibility of two additional three-year extensions, making the potential duration up to nine years. The procurement is initiated under a flexible framework allowing for a multi-tiered approach to service providers that meet the minimum selection criteria, including a satisfactory CQC rating. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in social work services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). By qualifying for this tender, businesses can access a dynamic framework that not only offers the chance to provide essential services but also enables participation in related projects and pilots initiated by the Council. Companies that can deliver comprehensive domiciliary care solutions, including rapid response and home-based respite services, will be particularly well-positioned to compete and secure contracts within this framework, thereby enhancing their growth potential in the public sector. ## Notice The City of Wolverhampton Council is seeking to contract with a number of providers for the provision of new domiciliary care services for older people and adults with disabilities. The specification has three main service elements; domicilary care, rapid response, and home-based respite for carers. Providers are expected to be able to deliver all these elements, however, where this is not possible providers will still be able to join the framework on a limited basis. The Council will operate a flexible framework with three tiers of Provider, and a mix of area based 'Lead' provider and city wide coverage. Inclusion on the framework will also provide occasional access to related special projects, pilots, and help Commissioners reduce 'spot' purchases. The framework is dynamic and will periodically open to allow new providers to join, and for existing providers to amend their service offer. Providers will have the potential of moving between the three tiers. Minimum selection criteria will apply and this will include a CQC overall rating higher than 'Inadequate'. Please refer to the tender documents for further information. The intention is to award this contract for a period of 3 years plus upto two further 3 year extensions, up to a total of 9 years (to May 2028). This tender is not a DPS or Dynamic Purchasing System opportunity, where the portal makes such reference, please note this is a Flexible Framework. Light Touch Regime: The subject matter of this procurement process relates to the delivery of services which are listed to in Chapter 3, Section 7 to the PCR 2015 regulations. As such the full regime set out in the regulations will not apply to the award of the framework contracts. Consequently, the procurement process adopted by the Commissioners has been developed in accordance with Regulation 76 of the regulations and in particular in accordance with the fundamental public procurement principles of transparency and equal treatment. For the avoidance of doubt this means that the Commissioners have not adopted an open procedure, framework or DPS (as defined in the regulations) for the undertaking of this procurement process. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a890fb75-e7ef-4f3f-a1f2-0d6181271908 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Other - | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 Oct 2019 | | Submission deadline | 27 Nov 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 15 May 2020 - 15 May 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £101,000,000 | | 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 | WOLVERHAMPTON CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | WOLVERHAMPTON | | Post town | Wolverhampton | | Postcode | WV1 1RL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG39 Wolverhampton | | Local authority | Wolverhampton | | Electoral ward | St Peters | | Westminster constituency | Wolverhampton West | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85312000 - Social work services without accommodation ## Release History - 21 Oct 2019 at 15:01 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a890fb75-e7ef-4f3f-a1f2-0d6181271908 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/a890fb75-e7ef-4f3f-a1f2-0d6181271908 21st October 2019 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=c2362492-0cf4-e911-80fa-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.wolverhampton.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
