Description
London Borough of Ealing intends to procure a contract for an OFSTED registered provider to deliver a 6-bed short break service for children and young people with disabilities within the Borough of Ealing.
Ealing wishes to invite suitably experienced providers to attend a Market Engagement Event. Please express your interest in attending at www.procontract.due-north.com. Project reference DN414462.
Date of Event : Thursday 4th July 2019
Time: 1.30pm - 3.30pm
Venue: Double Tree Hilton Hotel, 2-8 Hanger Lane, Ealing W5 3HN
(Opposite Ealing Common tube station)
It is envisaged the Open procurement will commence in late Summer 2019. The service would commence in April 2019, following the successful provider completing the required OFSTED registration to provide accommodation with personal care for children and young people aged between 9 and 18.
The procurement shall be conducted in accordance with Section 7 (Social and Other Specific Services) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
The service will be delivered from newly built premises in Northolt. The building is currently nearing completion and the service design comprises of 6 bedrooms over two floors, and a communal space in a modern new build environment in secure grounds. Considerable work has taken place to ensure the design represents the best possible use of resources and space to produce a state of the art disability friendly environment.
The contract for the Haydock service is likely to be a "core and flexi" model. Subject to the gradual phasing in of beds in year 1, the value of the core contract is likely to be in the region of £440k per annum. We anticipate the value of the flexible element to potentially be up to £184k per annum. The figures above are indicative at this stage.
We envisage that the successful provider may be able to market a small number of beds if they are not utilized by London Borough of Ealing. The flexible elements of the contract will be discussed at the market engagement event, where we look forward to receiving feedback from interested providers.
The duration of the contract is likely to be (10) years with two (2) possibilities of five (5) year extensions. It is likely the successful provider will be required to sign a ten (10) year lease for the property, with two (2) possibilities of five (5) year extensions.
The service will provide accommodation based short breaks for children and young people (aged 9 to 18) with disabilities. This is a diverse group of people, and the support they need will be person-centred and tailored to their needs, strengths, interests and in some cases, the risks they present to themselves and others. Child-centred planning with individuals and their families, and in some cases, crisis and contingency planning, will provide the basis for identifying the opportunities and activities offered.
