30 Mar 2033AI Summary
East Riding of Yorkshire Council is seeking applications from care agencies to join its Supported Living Open Framework. This framework will be utilized for the commissioning of all supported living schemes and substantial care packages contracted through the council.
The procurement focuses on securing high-quality supported living services for individuals who require significant assistance with daily living activities. Successful applicants must demonstrate a commitment to delivering person-centered care that is outcome-focused and tailored to individual needs.
Essential requirements include registration with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) or its successor body, maintaining CQC registration without serious compliance issues, and achieving a "good" or "outstanding" CQC inspection rating. Alternatively, agencies with a "requires improvement" rating may be considered if demonstrable action is being taken to address identified shortcomings. The framework operates on an open basis, allowing suppliers to apply at any time. Applications are evaluated annually or when the council identifies an urgent need for a specific provider. It is important to note that joining the framework does not guarantee any level of business. The initial contract period spans from 01/03/2025 to 31/03/2033, with options for three 24-month extensions. The estimated total contract value is £700 million. This procurement adheres to the Light Touch Regime under the EU Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
