Joint Commissioning of Home Care and Support in Leicestershire: The Home Care for Leicestershire Service

Leicestershire County Council, East Leicestershire & Rutland Clinical Commissioning Group and West Leicestershire Clinical Commissioning Group are intending to procure a new Home Care for Leicestershire service. Before the procurement is launched, we will be holding a pre-procurement engagement event with the market, which will focus on supporting market readiness in the independent sector.

The virtual market engagement event is being held on 12 March 2021 and the aim of the event will be to give an updated overview of the proposed model for delivering a sustainable countywide home care service through the independent sector, which will be effective in supporting individuals to achieve their desired outcomes in their local communities.

Further details of the agenda for the event will be issued to those who express an interest in attending the event. Please note, the event will be held at the following date and time:

• Friday 12th March at 9.15 - 11.45 a.m.

If you are interested in attending this event, please email HC4L@leics.gov.uk and you will be provided with the agenda and details for joining the event.

We hope that you will take up this opportunity to learn more about this upcoming procurement and to provide comment on our plans to ensure that we can work in partnership with providers to provide good quality, integrated home care services for the residents of Leicestershire.

This notice also serves as advance notice to the market of our intentions and potential bidders are encouraged to register an interest on our e-procurement portal - www.eastmidstenders.org.

We anticipate that the tender opportunity will become available in April 2021 and that the new Framework will commence in November 2021.
