In plain English

Cambridgeshire County Council is looking for providers to deliver supported living services for adults with learning disabilities. This is a 10-year framework agreement split into two service types: Standard and Complex Needs. The council will reopen applications periodically to allow new providers to join.

What the buyer wants

• Provide day-to-day supported living accommodation and care services for adults with learning disabilities • Ensure staff have appropriate training in health promotion, preventative care, and managing long-term health conditions • Support service users to live as independently as possible and progress towards greater independence • Recognise and address higher rates of health problems in this population through palliative and preventative support

Likely requirements

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

This is a large, specialist care contract requiring CQC registration, extensive staff training, and deep expertise in learning disability support. Most small traders (builders, electricians, cleaners) would be completely disqualified unless they are already registered care providers.

How to bid

This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
