Engagement process description
The purpose of this Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) is to seek further input from potential suppliers building on previous PME obtained in August 2025 in relation to Staffordshire County Council's (SCC) need to procure planned care support services in current Extracare facilities in East Staffordshire and Tamworth.
The purpose of this additional PME is to further explore the requirements and services to be commissioned as part of the proposed tender . The questions within this PME follow on from responses the Council received from the Provider market.
The care delivery would be funded by SCC at the Council's predetermined hourly Extracare rate of £21.74.
Currently SCC funded care hours within the schemes are 354 hours per week for the East Staffordshire scheme and 389 hours per week for the Tamworth scheme. This PME would like to explore with Providers the interest in an additional site within East Staffordshire in close proximity to the original identified scheme.
Please email OPPDcommissioning@staffordshire.gov.uk quoting IA3758 to obtain a copy of further background information and request a questionnaire that contains the specific questions that SCC requires feedback on.
If your organisation did not respond to the first PME and would like to review the initial set of questions, please advise and these can be shared with you for your information and/or response.
The deadline for responses is Wednesday 24th December 2025.
Completed questionnaires should be returned via email to oppdcommissioning@staffordshire.gov.uk
