Description
If you already have a contract for Residential and Nursing provision in place with Walsall Council then you do not need to complete this application process.
All Care home providers who have a current contract with Walsall Council to deliver these services will be awarded this new contract from 1st November 2020 to 31st March 2023. These providers have already demonstrated they have met the requirements of the application form so the Council is satisfied that this covers the principle of equal treatment as set out on Public Contract Regulations 2015. This will also ensure continuation of service for vulnerable service users and will elevate the administrative pressure placed on the market due to the current circumstances in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The duration of the Contracts will be from 1st November 2020 (or the date each award is made following successful completion of the application process) to 31st March 2023. Walsall MBC and Walsall Clinical Commissioning Group (WCCG) are permitted under this contract to award call-off contracts.
Please note that applications must be completed for each individual care home/location and not per provider.
The procurement process is an Open Application Process under the Light Touch Regime, (PCR 2015, regulations 74 - 77) for health and social care contracts. Under Regulation 76, the council is free to establish a procedure, provided that, the procedure is sufficient to ensure compliance with the principles of transparency and equal treatment of economic operators (suppliers).
The Application Process remains open for the duration of the contract and providers can apply to join at any time. All suppliers that satisfy all of the minimum requirements of the standard selection questionnaire (SSQ) and due diligence process shall be awarded a contract.
The processing of applications is prioritised by care homes where a service users currently reside or will reside in shortly, followed by care homes in the Borough of Walsall.
