Tenderers are asked to note the appointment to this Approved Provider List does not guarantee successful tenderers any work. The procedure for the award of services to approved providers is set out in the Specification which is included with the procurement documents. There are four lots. All tenderers wishing to bid for the Outreach Service must bid for Lot 1 and all tenderers wishing to bid for the Sitting Service must bid for Lot 3. Lots 2 (Outreach – CCG) and 4 (Sitting – CCG) are discretionary and tenderers may choose, at their discretion, whether or not to bid for Lots 2 and 4. For the avoidance of doubt, tenderers are not permitted to bid for Lots 2 and 4 alone.

Successful tenderers will be required to enter into a separate contract for each lot (when bidding for more than one lot). A copy of the contracts are included with the procurement documents.

The estimated total spend on the Services by the Council and the CCG combined over the entire contract period, to include the optional extension periods, is £5,934,000 (excluding VAT). This is broken down as a total estimated spend of:

Lot 1: Council - £5,040,000 (excluding VAT)

Lot 3: Council - £560,000 (excluding VAT)

Lots 2 & 4: CCG - £334,000 (excluding VAT). The CCG budget cannot be split between lots however, the majority of packages from the CCG are likely to be Outreach Services.

These are estimates only and neither the Council nor the CCG shall be bound by such estimates nor should these be interpreted as an undertaking to purchase any services.

Tenderers are asked to note that appointment to one or both of these Approved Provider Lists does not guarantee the successful tenderers any work. The procedure for the award of services to approved providers is set out in the Specification which is included with the procurement documents.

Tenderers are also asked to note that it is intended that the Outreach Service and Day and Night Sitting Service Approved Provider Lists will be re-opened for new applicants on an annual basis
