UPDATE - JUNE 2023 REOPENING OF THE FLEXIBLE FRAMEWORK
South Ayrshire Council wish to seek submissions from suitably qualified and experienced providers to supplement its existing Framework for Care at Home Services, ref CE-73-21.
The previously advertised flexible framework which commenced on 1 April 2022 allows for re-opening to new Providers. In accordance with its terms, it is now being opened for New Entrants to be admitted under the same requirements as the original tender exercise and as noted herein.
Providers already appointed to the Framework are not required to resubmit to remain on the Framework.
The estimated value shown in II.1.5 reflects the value advertised at the establishment of the framework which is an estimate and subject to change.
As this service is listed in Schedule 3 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations and the contract value exceeds 663,540 GBP over the contract period, the Council will be using the afforded flexibility of the Light Touch Regime to re-open the framework.
