## Summary

The Herefordshire Council is conducting a procurement process titled "A Framework for Care Experienced Young People, Offer of Local Accommodation and Support," aimed at providing enhanced accommodation and support services for care experienced young individuals. This tender, which falls under the health and social work services category (CPV code 85000000), includes two distinct lots: Lot 1 for accommodation and Lot 2 for support services specifically for care leavers. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the framework will operate under the Light Touch Regime, allowing for periodic re-entry of new providers. The deadlines for submissions are determined by the designated tender periods, with the process currently active and aiming to establish a framework that encourages participation from local landlords and support providers in the UKG11 region.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in social work, accommodation, and support services, particularly those that can provide tailored solutions for care experienced young people. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as larger organisations will find this tender relevant, especially those with expertise in social work and related services. The framework allows bidders to compete for either Lot 1, focused on accommodation, or Lot 2, dedicated to support services, enhancing the likelihood of firms in these sectors contributing to an essential community service while fostering business growth through collaboration with the public sector.

## Notice

The council is seeking to run a procurement with Local Landlords and Support Providers, to offer their services via a Framework to the council. The Framework will help achieve an improved and sustained local accommodation and support offer to care experienced young people. Applicants accepted onto the Framework will be in a position to apply through a mini competition to offer their service(s) of accommodation and/or support to our care experienced young people. The tender will be let as a framework consisting of two separate Lots as identified below. Providers will be permitted to bid for a single Lot or for both Lots together: Lot 1: Accommodation (excluding Support) Lot 2: Support only for Care leavers The Framework will be established under the Light Touch Regime and therefore applies the flexibilities afforded under regulation 76 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. These flexibilities include the re-opening of the Framework to allow new entrants periodically. Given the nature of the supported accommodation and to maintain a viable framework, it is necessary to allow new entrants to enter the Framework periodically (at the discretion of the council and subject to service needs.)
