## Summary

Hampshire County Council has concluded the procurement process associated with their project titled "Care Support Services for Children with a Disability - Complex Support (Health Needs)", categorised under health and social work services. Located in various regions across the United Kingdom, including areas identified under UKJ35, UKJ36, and UKJ37, this procurement reached the award stage effective from 15th July 2026. The service is structured under a selective procurement method, specifically as an award under a framework, and it concluded with the finalisation of a contract period from 1st September 2026 to 31st August 2030, with the potential for extensions. The awarded contract value is £416,000, with P&M Homecare Limited, operating as Bluebird Care North Hampshire & West Berkshire, recognised as the selected supplier. The procurement was part of a strategic approach to provide complex care for children with significant health needs, involving specialised clinical training and experience. The procurement process follows a "light touch" regime aligned with legislation outlined in UKPGA 2023/54.

The awarded contract for Care Support Services presents significant opportunities for businesses offering specialised clinical staff and care solutions for children with complex health requirements. The nature of this tender demands advanced health care providers capable of meeting rigorous service delivery standards, which can foster business growth in health services by encouraging innovation in personalised care delivery and enhancing market competitiveness. Organisations proficient in handling severe disabilities, with the capacity to train and mobilise staff for tasks such as PEG feeding and complex medication management, will find this contract particularly suitable. The commitment to developing services through this contract also anticipates potential job satisfaction improvements for caregivers, which in turn could lead to reduced staff turnover and sustained business operation benefits.

## 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.
