Likely requirements

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

This contract is practically closed to small businesses without significant prior experience in adult social care delivery, CQC registration, qualified staffing, and the infrastructure to manage supported living contracts across multiple service users and locations.

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.
