Description

Norfolk County Council wishes to award contracts to Providers for both Principal and Framework Provision of Home Support in the South of Norfolk. Before we do this, we wish to engage with Providers. If you wish to attend this engagement on 14th February, please first register at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/norfolkcc/aspx/Home and express an interest in this procurement. Using the correspondence facility, send the name of up to 2 attendees with email contacts. We will then send you details of time and location. If you want to deliver home support for the Council in these areas we would urge you to attend so that you are aware of our plans.

The Council wishes to appoint one Principal provider to deliver home support services in each Primary Care Network (PCN) within Norfolk. The intention is that the Principal Providers will deliver 70% of the hours and the remaining 30% will be delivered by a small number of PCN framework providers, whose appointment is subject to a separate procurement.
This procurement is split into 4 lots, which covers PCNs in South Norfolk:
The lots area:
1. Mid Norfolk
2. Breckland
3. Ketts Oak
4. SNHIP
Please note that our intention overall is to limit a provider to having a maximum of 50% of the PCNs in an area.
Bidders may apply for all lots in each area, but will be awarded no more than 2 for each area.
If you have been successful in previous procurements, the number of lots you hold for an area will be taken into consideration.

The procurement will be conducted under the Procurement Act 2023. We wish to use the engagement to discuss with you our requirements, the tender process we are proposing (competitive flexible) and expectations of all parties. We will also discuss lessons learnt from previous procurements for this service in other areas of Norfolk.

DHSC: ASC Transitions Training Materials

Background His Majesty’s Government (HMG) works to deliver better life chances for all – breaking the link between background and success. We do this by protecting children and ensuring the delivery of higher standards of education, training and care. The variation and poor quality of the transition from children’s services into ASC is a problem raised in many reports. Improving this transition is important for supporting young people with special educational needs and disabilities to get the right support and to live as independently as possible in adulthood. We are seeking to address the cultural and join-up problems by upskilling the social care sector via a set of best practice training materials and guidelines. The guidelines should be overarching principles for good transitions, drawing on existing materials such as NICE guidelines . These materials will improve the transitions capabilities of both children and adult social workers and leaders in the sector. The development of deliverables, and decisions as to their format, must be informed by engagement with those with lived experience of the transition into ASC (this should include young people, young carers, family, unpaid carers, relevant education settings and practitioners working in the sector).

The Drive Project: Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Services

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Warwickshire, in partnership with the Drive Project, is seeking a qualified Service Provider to deliver a Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Intervention Service. The Drive Project is a nationally recognised response to domestic abuse, designed to reduce the number of child and adult victims by disrupting and changing perpetrator behaviour. It adopts a whole-system approach, combining intensive individual case management with a co-ordinated multi-agency response to drive behavioural change. The project prioritises victim safety while complementing existing victim services. It targets high-risk or serial perpetrators, both male and female, aged 16 and over, who present the greatest risk of serious harm and typically engage poorly with existing services. The key objectives are to reduce the number of serial perpetrators of domestic abuse, reduce the number of repeat and new victims, and reduce the harm caused to victims and children. By addressing perpetrator behaviour, Drive tackles the root cause of domestic abuse and improves outcomes for victims and families. The appointed provider will deliver one-to-one case management for perpetrators, support systemic change through multi-agency collaboration, participate in the Perpetrator Panel (e.g., MATAC or similar forum), and work closely with the Drive Partnership, PCC, local authorities, IDVA services, and stakeholders to develop and adapt best practice models. This is a one-stage tender process. The contract falls below the Light Touch Regime threshold and is therefore outside the Procurement Act 2023; compliance with Act provisions is voluntary. The contract will be for an initial 12-month period with an option to extend for up to a further 12 months, subject to funding. Target go-live date is 01 April 2026. The funding envelope for this project is £317,438 per annum (VAT exempt). Award of contract, including any extensions, is subject to receipt of programme funding. This process is being managed via the, free to access, In-Tend Sell2 Bluelight Portal: https://sell2.in-tend.co.uk/blpd/home Please log in, navigate to ‘Portals’, and select ‘Connect with Organisation’ for Warwickshire Police to access full tender documentation and submission instructions.
