Tender description

The authority is looking to work with a capable provider who will work with provider partners as part of intermediate care community based services, to provide nursing and therapeutic input for individuals who require 24 hour supervision during their rehabilitation and reablement programme. The requirement is that the individual therapy programme will be formulated with the person, to achieve the following objectives: — return home at the earliest opportunity, and or — increase or maintain independence, choice and control, and or — instigate planned treatment and care to manage deterioration in health and well-being. The services to which this procurement relates fall within Schedule 3 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (the ‘Regulations’). As such, the procurement of the services is being run as a bespoke, single stage application process akin to the open procedure, involving a number of stages which are outlined within the suite of procurement documents. The authority does not intend to hold itself bound by any of the regulations, save those applicable to Schedule 3 Services. This procurement is being voluntarily undertaken as a light touch regime procurement. The Trust is adopting a fair and transparent process to enable prospective suppliers to provide a written submission using the documentation included in the tendering portal identified in this advert. We are conducting a single stage where all potential bidders will be assessed against the criteria included in the tender documentation. It is the intention of the authority to award a contract to a single provider where they can demonstrate the capacity to meet all of our requirements. If it is not possible to award a single contract to a single provider the authority reserves the right to award a contract to multiple providers offering to ensure the capacity required is met.
