## Summary

Leeds City Council is seeking temporary residential care block beds for its Discharge to Assess service. The requirement is for health and social care services: residential care provision intended to support people discharged from hospital while their needs are assessed. Delivery is in Leeds, with the service location required to be within four miles of Leeds General Infirmary. This is a single-lot service requirement. The council is the buying organisation and is procuring the beds for its discharge-to-assess arrangements. The stated scope is limited to temporary residential care block beds; the procurement description does not identify a particular care-home model, number of beds or resident group, so suppliers should check the tender requirements for operational detail before deciding whether the service matches their provision.

The process reached tender and Leeds City Council invited offers through an open competition. The enquiry deadline was 12 October 2026 at 23:59, and the offer submission deadline was 14 October 2026 at 23:59. The contract period was set to run from 19 October to 14 December 2026, with a possible extension to 31 December 2026; the council states that the contract can be extended. The estimated gross value for the single lot is £95,000. Evaluation uses a price/quality separated approach with a minimum quality threshold. To qualify, a provider must be within four miles of Leeds General Infirmary and have a Care Quality Commission rating of good or outstanding. The procurement is below the relevant threshold and is for services.

This opportunity is suited to residential care providers able to supply temporary block beds for hospital discharge and assessment placements in the Leeds area. Providers need to operate within four miles of Leeds General Infirmary and hold a Care Quality Commission rating of good or outstanding, making location and current care quality performance central to eligibility. The council marks the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and for voluntary, community and social enterprises. Suppliers in those categories may compete if they meet the same location and rating conditions and can deliver the required residential care service. The commercial fit is strongest for providers with suitable local capacity for short-term placements and the ability to meet the tender’s minimum quality threshold.
