Description
Market Engagement Event
Westminster City Council and the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea will be embarking on re-commissioning Adult Social Care Learning Disabilities Housing Care and Support contracts, introducing a structured procurement process under the Housing Care and Support Framework, formalising the sourcing and placement process which supports an efficient commissioning and delivery model.
Person-centred care is a key theme running through this vision. Genuine choice and control about personalised care and support can enhance quality of life and promote independence in a way that matters to individuals. Together, these measures aim to put learning disabilities service users at the heart of what we do. We seek to ensure co-production with providers is embedded through the commissioning and procurement processes in the development and implementation of the framework with a co-ordinated long-term vision in-line with responsibilities set under the care act 2014 to ensure personalisation, independence, choice, control and designing services to local demand.
The market engagement event will provide an opportunity to discuss the borough's vision for how learning disabilities housing care and support is to be delivered in the future. We are keen to hear your views and utilise your expertise to commission a high quality and sustainable service for our residents.
Providers with experience of delivering these types of services in-borough and neighbouring boroughs are invited to attend a supplier engagement event on Friday 29th July 2022 (am). Full details of venue location and time will be issued via the capitalesourcing portal.
Kindly register your expression of interest via our e-tendering portal; www.capitalesourcing.com and search for the following reference: pqq_WCC_1788_Learning Disabilities, Housing Care and Support Framework.
A market sounding questionnaire will be made available on the portal inviting feedback from providers in the market to outline their level of interest and capacity in relation to this future opportunity.
It should be noted that this is not a guarantee of further competition. The Authority reserves the right, at its own discretion, to withdraw from the process and pursue alternative routes to market for the provision of this service, should it decide to do so. Expressions of Interest are not to be emailed directly and must go via the E-procurement portal capitalEsourcing.
