Description

Plymouth City Council would like to invite you to provide a tender for one, or a maximum of two of the lots detailed below.
Lots 1 to 4 Extra Care Housing ECH
ECH is delivered within 7 schemes across Plymouth where people the majority aged 55 and over have their own self contained homes as part of a larger complex, have a legal right to occupy the property and have the provision of on site care and support.
The service supports people to achieve the following, but not limited to, outcomes
People are supported to continue to live independently
People are supported individually so that they can lead as natural and independent a life as possible behind the privacy of their own door
People with complex needs associated with dementia and physical and mental disability receive skilled services that help them maintain and enjoy an active life
A more independent lifestyle may be facilitated for some, whereas the provision of a continually supportive environment will be a key factor for others
People are supported to achieve their desired level of involvement with their local community
People are supported to maintain or gain independent living skills following periods of illness and so prevent hospital admission or readmission
People are supported to evaluate and manage their own risk and to establish their preferred priorities
People passing through the Pathways flats where applicable will receive individualised care and support with the aim of achieving a positive outcome for continued independent living
The service focuses on two key areas of delivery
The Core service for the seven schemes ensures care and support cover 24 hours a day. This is a fixed arrangement, available to all and delivered through a block payment non chargeable to clients. This core service will also provide planned support to those residents who have not been assessed as requiring an Adult Social Care assessed package of care and support but who require low level support to maintain independence, continue to enjoy health and well being and remain socially engaged.
The provision of one to one care and support that a significant number of Extra Care Housing Residents require and which has been assessed as being eligible within Adult Social Care Fair Access to Care Assessment.
People will have the choice of either selecting the core organisation to deliver this one to one care and support as assessed as eligible by Adult Social Care or may wish to select a different provider for this purpose.

Complete Tender Coverage

Following Brexit, the new official Find a Tender system has been developed by UK Government to detail all public procurement contract opportunities expected to be over £122, 976 for Central Government or £189,330 for the remainder of the public sector e.g. NHS contracts, Local Authority contracts, Housing Association contracts. Publishing requirements for all of the public sector are in place to ensure transparency, fairness and open competition.

All UK public sector opportunities under these values, but over £10,000 for central government or over £25,000 for other public sector organisations, are still required to be published on Contracts Finder. Scotland, Wales and NI also have their own dedicated sites: Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales, eSourcing NI and eTendersNI.

Complete Tenders have centralised and consolidated all of this information into a single, easy to use platform that is updated hourly with all new opportunities.
