Description

Cheshire West and Chester Council intend to merge previously two separate services (Care at Home and Extra Care Housing) into one Service to deliver on the Council's commitment to commissioning on a Strengths-Based and Outcome-Focused approach to deliver high-quality services and meaningful outcomes for people within the Borough. 

Providers delivering these services will work with the Council, with residents in receipt of care and with relevant stakeholders to evolve these care provisions, focusing on an enabling and reablement approach 'doing with not doing for', achieving  Care Act identified outcomes, and enabling people to live a great life within their local communities. 

The new service will be delivered within seven geographical localities across the borough which is reflective of our Community Social Work Teams to strengthen working relationships between the Council's Social Work and Occupational Therapy Practitioners and the Care Provider's workforce.    

Each of the seven localities will have one Principal Provider (previously referred to as Prime Providers) and a number of Associate Providers (previously referred to as Framework Providers).  
Each locality has at least one Extra Care Housing Scheme as part of its community.  The Principal Provider will lead and deliver all care and support hours required within their awarded scheme from day one, plus a percentage of the Care at Home hours required within the local locality.  As the borough is a geographical mixture of both urban and rural areas, each locality is impacted by differing levels of need and demand.  Therefore, the percentage of Care at Home hours will be determined by the need and demand within each locality and care hours allocated to Principal Providers will be expected to grow naturally as current care packages evolve and new ones are commissioned.   

All remaining Care at Home hours available will be allocated to the Associated Providers - see DN741081 for tender pack for Associates

Emergency Accommodation Flexible Light Touch Framework 2026

North Somerset Council is seeking to appoint suitably qualified providers to provide of Emergency Accommodation through a Flexible Light Touch Framework to assist with the statutory duty to provide interim accommodation for homeless households. Using the Light Touch regulations of the Procurement Act 2023, NSC proposes to establish a framework of providers to deliver our emergency accommodation responsibilities that may allow the appointment of new entrants during the term when service levels demand, existing providers leave the framework, or we are notified about new providers in the local market. The framework will remain in place for 4 years. The Procurement Act 2023 states that frameworks let under light touch regulations are not limited in terms of duration and therefore, if the requirements of the service are still being met at the end of the 4 year term, and there are no updates required to the terms and conditions or specification, specifically in relation to housing legislation, the framework may be extended further. The accommodation is being split into Lots: Lot 1 - Single adult room This Lot is for rooms to accommodate a single adult. Lot 2 - Adult Couple room This Lot is for rooms to accommodate a couple or 2 people. Lot 3 - Family room Please refer to the Specification and Framework Agreement for more information. Suppliers will operate under a framework agreement to provide their accommodation to the Council. Suppliers who have been assessed and appointed to the framework, will provide accommodation on a night by night basis when required by the Council, as described in the specification. Call off Arrangements - Award of contracts under the framework As a "Light Touch" service, the Council intend to award contracts by way of direct awards. The Home Choice and Lettings Team will use the following process to determine which provider will be awarded a call-off contract: 1. Determine which provider has current availability 2. Determine which provision is most suited to the needs of the individual or family, based on locality (if this is important in terms of support networks, employment, etc), other occupants If more than one provision is suitable, the Homeless Prevention Team will offer the provision that scores highest in terms of price / quality.
