Lots and requirements (2)Procurement structure
2 lots · all with a published valueLot #1Community SupportPublished value£30,000,000
The Community Support Service is where support is delivered to adults with learning disabilities, mental health needs, Autism and neurodiversity, Acquired Brain Injury, Physical Disability and Sensory Needs, or substance misuse and eligible Care Act needs. Accommodation is not part of the Service (e.g., the Individual has an independent tenancy or lives with family/others) and this would continue regardless of the support provided.
Lot #2Supported LivingPublished value£210,000,000
This lot covers Supported Living services where support is provided alongside a tenancy or licence agreement for adults with learning disabilities, mental health needs, Autism and neurodiversity, Acquired Brain Injury, Physical Disability and Sensory Needs or substance misuse and eligible Care Act needs.
People will have their own individual tenancy or licence agreement for their accommodation and are liable to pay rent.
When individuals are assessed as not having capacity to sign a tenancy or licence agreement the relevant Assessment team will make an application to the Court of Protection. Rent can be met by Housing Benefit or through Housing Costs under Universal Credit if the person is eligible for these benefits.
Accommodation may have been identified in advance or Service Providers will be expected to source accommodation. This will be identified at the Call-Off Stage.
Support models will vary depending on a person's needs. Most Services will operate a model of shared care and may provide 24-hour Staff on site, where Staff work night shifts, either waking or sleeping at the Service. The Service Provider and the Council will discuss the support model at an early stage.
The Service will provide a place of safety, security and stability.
The Service Provider will be responsible for fostering good relationships with neighbours and local businesses and managing the behaviour of people using the Service in the locality of the building. The Service Provider will respond to any complaints from the local community in a timely manner.
The Service Provider is expected to become part of the local community. The Service Provider will engage Individuals with the community and engage the community with the Service.
If the Service Provider is sourcing accommodation, they must meet the accommodation standards as detailed in the Specification.
