Award

Description

Renfrewshire Council (the Council) is seeking to establish a multi–Provider Flexible Framework Agreement (Flexible Framework) for the Provision of Supported Living and Community Based Support Services for Adults with Social Care Needs. The Services will be for Adults with support needs relating to Mental  Health, Learning Disabilities, Autism, Physical Disabilities, complex needs or other care and support inclusive of personal care, housing support, non-personal care, emotional and practical support. There may be the occasional requirement for a Service to be arranged for a child. The Council will utilise the Flexible Framework for SDS Option 2 & Option 3.
It is anticipated that the Flexible Framework will be for 4 years with the option to extend for up to 12 months on 3 occasions, subject to satisfactory operation and performance. It is anticipated that the Flexible Framework will start on the 1st November 2024 and will expire on the 31st October 2028. Should all extension options be taken, the end date will be the 31st October 2031. In the event that the Flexible Framework does not start on 1st November 2024, the Flexible Framework will start on the Commencement Date as stated in the Letter of Acceptance. The length of any Individual Service Contract (ISC) made under this Flexible Framework will be stated in the relevant ISC. Please note an ISC may expire after the Flexible Framework End Date.
Tenderers should note there is no guaranteed level of spend for any ISC awarded under the Flexible Framework; there is also no guarantee of payment being made to a Provider solely by appointment to the Flexible Framework.
A flexible approach has been designed which will allow New Entrants to apply to be on the Flexible Framework.

COV - West Midlands Children's Regional Residential Care Framework (2025)

This framework is for the provision of children's residential care across the West Midlands region. Coventry City Council is the lead local authority for the new framework, which can be accessed by the 14 West Midlands Local Authorities/Trusts and their successors/any successor bodies of any of the 14 entities. The West Midlands Children's Residential Care Framework aims to be the primary means by which residential care placements are sourced in the region from the independent market. Renewing the framework is therefore central to the West Midlands Local Authorities and Children's Trusts' strategy for securing sufficient residential care homes to meet need in the coming years. Please see tender documents for more information about the new framework and how it will be awarded. The tender documents can be downloaded from Coventry City Council's e-tendering website www.csw-jets.co.uk. The framework value of £4,946,000,000 exc. VAT includes potential framework extensions of two increments of 3 years. This is a Flexible framework (and for the avoidance of doubt NOT an Open Framework as defined by the Procurement Act), which shall be re-opened at least annually and there will be additional re-openings, at any time if in the reasonable opinion of the Council the flexible framework needs to be re-opened to enable the Council and any Placing Authority to discharge their statutory duties in relation to Children in Care and the current number of providers and homes do not offer sufficient capacity in terms of residential placements available across the West Midlands region. If a Provider fails to be admitted onto the Framework or a home fails to be added to the framework, the provider may reapply for re-consideration during any of designated Framework reopening term(s) to demonstrate that the framework requirements can be met. See Section 2.11 Flexible Framework Reopening Process in Part 1 - Information pack of the tender documents for further details regarding the framework re-opening process.
