Description

The London Borough of Newham is in the process of establishing a Supporting Vulnerable Adults Dynamic Purchasing Vehicle (DPV) for 5 + optional 5 years.

The DPV will include the following categories:

Category 1: Supported Living
Category 2: Supporting Vulnerable Single Homeless Adults (SVSHA)
Category 3: Prevention and Floating Support
Category 4: Extra Care
Category 5: Shared Lives
Category 6: Care Homes
Category 7: Immigration Advice and Support

The aim of the DPV is to deliver the transformation of these services and to improve provider service quality with the need for a dynamic pathway that can flex around the individuals needs rather than a one size fits all approach.

The Authority is currently working to establish Category 4: Extra Care.

Extra Care Housing (ECH) is designed to meet the needs of predominantly older people who require 24-hour care and support to flexibly meet a wide range of needs which may include physical care and support needs, learning disability, cognitive disability and mental ill-health. Unlike Residential and Nursing Care, people who live in ECH have their own self-contained home within a purpose-built block and hold their own tenancy agreement.

Suppliers are invited to attend a virtual 'Meet the Supplier' session to find out plans for Category 4: Extra Care and learn more about how to submit a tender via the Council's 'Fusion' e-tendering portal. The session will be held via MS Teams on: 11/10/2023 11:30 -1pm To register your interest please complete your details using the link: https://forms.office.com/e/nZiXq133iV
