This tender for the Disability Framework presents an opportunity for residential and supported living providers to secure a place on the Framework for potential calls for support services.

The Framework serves in part to meet West Glamorgan's collective response to the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 by supporting individuals in ways that would promote greater independence, choice and control and encourage for some, progression, and recovery. It is anticipated that the Lots on the Framework will be structured as follows - 1 Learning Disability 2 Neuro-Diverse 3 Mental Health 4 Physical Disability and Brain Acquired Injury The above Lots would cover individuals with general and complex needs. The procurement exercise aims to attract good quality residential and supported living providers on to the Framework, where those services may be located across the UK. Specialist providers who undertake specialist support under the two service models will also be encouraged to apply. As the tender aims to secure providers onto the Framework that will be used to 'call-off' support, the tender will be based on an evaluation criterion of 100% quality, that is, there will be no cost element to evaluate as part of securing a place on the Framework.
