Tender Description

Lambeth Council invites suitable expressions of interest from suppliers for the provision of Home Care.
Lambeth's home care service is being re-commissioned under a new neighbourhood model that complements the way that health, social care and wellbeing services in Lambeth are going to be organised around neighbourhoods, as part of Lambeth Together Strategies.
There will be eight home care neighbourhood areas that will have the same footprint as the neighbourhood nursing team areas in Lambeth, facilitating closer working between care workers and neighbourhood nurses. The neighbourhood model of care will allow for greater integration, continuity of care and use of community assets, to the benefit of home care service users.
To enable an integrated approach to home care, through locality-based provision the borough will be divided into eight neighbourhoods: (1) North Lambeth, £2,768,260 PA (2) Clapham / Brixton Hill £2,480,100 PA, (3) Clapham Town, £2,520,620 PA (4) Myatt's Field / Brixton North, £3,545,540 PA (5) Dulwich Wood / Gipsy Hill, £3,212,240 PA (6) Herne Hill, £2,558,400 PA (7) Oval / Stockwell,£3,852,160 PA (8) Streatham Hill / Streatham South.£3,983,940 PA
We are calling this the Single Neighbourhood Provider model; it will mean that there will be a maximum of eight providers delivering standard home care.
The proposed procurement of home care services will mean that in each of the eight neighbourhoods there will be one home care provider that will deliver all standard home care packages to residents in that neighbourhood, which we estimate to be 90-95% of care to be delivered. This will include working age adults (18-64) and older adults (age 65+) and people with a range of primary support reasons, including physical disabilities, learning disabilities and mental health needs. The range of care packages and service user needs will vary by the needs of each neighbourhood community. We therefore expect Neighbourhood Providers to support people who present with a range of conditions such as but not limited to, people with mild or moderate learning disabilities, mental health needs, communication difficulties, those who find it very difficult to manage their daily lives.
In addition, there will be a Reserved Provider List Lot 9 (£1.2 to 2.4 Million per PA) in situations where a neighbourhood provider cannot accept referrals in their neighbourhood area to enable opportunity for smaller and medium size enterprise to remain in or enter the market, as well as to provide market resilience.
Details of how contracts will be awarded is explained within the tender documentation.
The intention is to award the contracts for a period of 5 years plus up to two 1-year extensions, up to a total of 7 years.
Bidders can bid for all 9 Lots, but will be awarded only one Lot/contract.
At SSQ stage Bidders will be required to complete SSQ for Lots 1 to 8 and SSQ for Lot 9 dependent on which Lots they are interested in bidding.
