In plain English

Lancashire County Council is building an open list of approved care providers to supply supported housing services for people with learning disabilities, autism, mental health needs, and physical disabilities. Any eligible care provider can apply to join this list at any time, and the council will then call off services from approved providers as needed.

What the buyer wants

• Provide residential care and support services in supported housing settings for vulnerable adults (primarily those with learning disabilities, autism, mental health needs, or physical disabilities) • Maintain CQC registration and comply with all regulatory requirements • Develop annual service development plans and respond to changing service user needs • Potentially contribute social value elements as part of service delivery

Likely requirements

Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.

You must be registered with the CQC for at least 2 years in personal care, community services for learning disabilities, or supported living, if you're not currently registered, you cannot apply. This disqualifies almost all new or unregistered providers.

How to bid

This is a Dynamic Purchasing System: an open list of approved suppliers. You can apply to join at any time while it runs, and once accepted you can bid for the individual contracts the buyer runs through it.
