Description
The Council has an urgent need to commission Individual Supported Living provision for five adults living in three established groupings in the Southend-on-Sea borough. The service subject of this tender falls within Schedule 3 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 and as such are subject to the "light touch" procurement regime. As the value of the contract falls above the relevant threshold set out in Regulation 5, the procurement will follow the requirements set out in Regulation 75 -77 of the 2015 Regulations. This will include the publication of a contract notice and an award notice (regulation 75) and applying the principles set out in Regulation 77.
The supported living provision for each adult has been informed by the current support and housing arrangements and assessments from the social care and behavioural support teams. The Council has an urgent requirement to commission tailored supported living provisions that support and enable people with a learning disability to live as independently as possible, to identify and achieve their own personal goals and outcomes and to connect with the local and wider community.
The five tenants are currently living in three separate groupings; therefore this tender opportunity has been split into three separate Lots:
Lot 1: House A (2 adults funded by Southend-on-Sea Borough Council)
Lot 2: House B (2 adults funded by Southend-on-Sea Borough Council)
Lot 3: House C (1 adult funded by the NHS Southend Clinical Commissioning Group)
Tenderers are encouraged to respond to one, two or all three Lots.
