Section six. Complementary information

six.1) Information about recurrence

This is a recurrent procurement: Yes

Estimated timing for further notices to be published: It is intended that the approved provider list will be re-opened to applicants every 12 months after the first award.

six.3) Additional information

There are two lots, as further set out above. All tenderers must bid for Lot 1. Lot 2 is discretionary and tenderers may choose, at their discretion, whether or not to bid for Lot 2. For the avoidance of doubt, tenderers are not permitted to bid for Lot 2 alone.

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

The estimated total spend on the All Age Domiciliary Care Services - Approved Provider List by the Council and the CCG combined over the entire contract period, to include the optional extension periods, is £9,600,000. This is broken down as a total estimated spend of £3,600,000 by the Council (Lot 1) and £6,000,000 by the CCG (Lot 2). 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 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.

Tenderers are also asked to note that it is intended that the All Age Domiciliary Care Services - Approved Provider List will be re-opened for new applicants on an annual basis.

It is not possible to establish future workloads and it is therefore not possible to guarantee that all or any tenderers admitted onto the approved provider list will be awarded work/care packages under the contract.
