Extra Care Housing Market Engagement Webinars
Devon County Council (DCC) is seeking to establish a Flexible Purchasing System (FPS) for Extra Care providers able to deliver Care and Support services into Extra Care Housing (ECH) schemes in Devon.
Service Providers will be required to staff an onsite and exclusive team at the individual Extra Care schemes that they are appointed to and must occupy an onsite office space and be registered as a specific location with the Care Quality Commission.
The FPS will be comprised of two Lots:
Lot 1 - Care and support services:
• Core provision to ensure care and support cover 24-hours a day including social inclusion and response to unplanned care needs
• The provision of commissioned one-to-one care and support that a significant number of people living in Extra Care Housing require and which has been assessed as being eligible within Adult Social Care Fair Access to Care Assessment.
Lot 2 - Innovation and Future Working
• This Lot will enable DCC to continue to develop its ECH model over the lifetime of the FPS and provider opportunities to innovate and work in different ways where opportunities arise.
DCC currently commissions care and support into six Extra Care Housing schemes, of which four schemes will be called-off for immediately, as part of the tender to establish the FPS.
An additional two services are currently in development with planned completion dates between Autumn 2027 and Spring 2028, and further schemes are at the planning stage and anticipated to be completed within the lifetime of the FPS.
DCC will be holding online market engagement discussion sessions to provide further information on the FPS and schemes to be procured under it on:

The sessions are planned for:
