Bids must be submitted electronically by 12pm o. 24th October 2022.

Providers are required to complete and pass the mandatory questions in order to secure a place on the framework, however providers seeking to deliver services to enhanced complex adults will be required to complete additional questions. These questions are optional and full details are included within the procurement documents

Providers will be required to identify all supported living schemes at which they are the primary care provider and bring them forward to the framework for ECC to make placements at for the published rates. Existing placements in any schemes brought forward shall transition on to the new terms and conditions of contract.

This procurement is for the delivery of care services within supported living settings brought forward by the provider. This will cover all new placements made by the Council into supported living services and transition existing placements onto the new contract terms.
