## Summary

Hampshire County Council has concluded a procurement process for the provision of Care Support Services for Children with a Disability, focusing on complex health needs. The awarded contract is part of a framework agreement and targets the Health and Social Work Services sector. Located in regions UKJ35, UKJ36, and UKJ37 in the United Kingdom, this selective procurement method culminated in an award to Kope-Medics Ltd. The contract, valued at £416,000, is scheduled to begin on 1st September 2026, with a potential extension up to 31st August 2034, reflecting its importance in delivering specialist care services. The procurement stage currently rests in the Award phase, with strategic implementation to follow, as the contract papers are scheduled for signing by 17th August 2026.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, especially for companies equipped to manage and deliver complex healthcare support services. SMEs with a focus on health and social care, particularly those with experience in delivering specialist services such as PEG feeding and epilepsy management, may find this sector rewarding. The initiative is oriented towards innovative service delivery, promising an environment conducive to enhancing skills and service quality, thereby providing a fertile ground for businesses aiming to expand their footprint in the specialist care segment of public service provision. By engaging in such a project, businesses can significantly contribute to the advancement of care services, potentially leading to further collaborations and contract opportunities with local governments.

## Notice

Hampshire County Council Children's Services commissions care support for children and young people with disabilities. The children and young people requiring care support services will include those with severe disabilities such as learning disabilities, physical disabilities, autistic spectrum conditions, behaviour that challenges and complex physical or mental health needs. The Services are part of a holistic support package for the child / young person that meets identified outcomes as part of a Care Plan as agreed by the Council's County Allocation Panel. This Service is part of Hampshire County Council's Children's Services Department's continuum of services which support children and young people with disabilities. Care support is a Tier 4 specialist service, which can be offered to a family following a social care assessment where the Disabled Children's Team criteria has been met and/or an unmet social care need has been identified. This Service aims to facilitate the development of the market to deliver services in new and more personalised ways rather than the conventional delivery of domiciliary care which in turn will enhance the skills of staff, potentially offering greater job satisfaction, in delivering the Service and improving the experience of the Service User. This Notice relates to a call off procedure for Care Support Services for Children with a Disability - Complex Support (Health). This is for children and young people with significant health needs requiring staff with additional clinical training or experience (e.g., PEG feeding, epilepsy management, suctioning, complex medication regimes). Any potential value will be awarded through subsequently awarded Individual Service Contracts rather than at this call off stage.
