This is a procurement for an open framework for the development of new care home accommodation with care and nursing provided in a care home setting. In 2023, the Authority published its Supported and Specialist Housing Strategy, Cornwall Supported & Specialist Housing Strategy 2023-2050 which sets out the future demand for services. This procurement tender exercise is for the development of new care home schemes in strategic locations across Cornwall to meet the demand set out in the Specialist and Supported Housing Strategy and Market Position Statement. The Authority is inviting tenders from suitably experienced and qualified developers of care home accommodation and providers of care services to be appointed to the open framework. In order to tender for a place on the Framework, a Supplier must be comprised of a Developer and a Care Services Provider. A Developer may either be the Care Services Provider, or have partnered with a Care Services Provider in order to be eligible for this Procurement. It is the Supplier as a whole that will be appointed to the Framework, not the individual Developer or Care Services Provider in isolation. The NHS Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly Integrated Care Board shall be entitled to access any care services ordered under this Framework. Please refer to the tender documents for further details.

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 45. The category anchor is Construction work (45000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.
| Comparison set | Procedures | Reported bids per procedure | Named award suppliers | Price evidence |

| Market: CPV division 45 | 17,127 | 4 median · 30.2 average (5,652 of 17,127 with a bid count) | 3.8 average (6,245 of 17,127 with named award suppliers) | Not published |

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.
Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
No planning milestones published.
No linked framework, prior procurement or reprocurement published.
Diagnostic view. “Not published” means this current release does not provide a value.

However, the estimated aggregated total value of call-off contracts to be awarded over the maximum eight (8) year period of this Open Framework is £7,442,000,000. This is divided as follows:\n•\tAnticipated spend on the Care Services across the Care Services Framework (Ref: DN770144) and this Framework: £7,400,000,000\n•\tAnticipated spend on the Works across the Care Home Development Framework: £42,000,000\nThe estimated total value calculated is based on potential grant payments and void payments, as well as services provision costs across the term of the call-off contracts awarded under this Framework and the Care Services Framework (Ref: DN770144). The Authority will use both the Care Services Framework (Ref: DN770144) and this Framework to procure the Care Services and the spend on the Care Services under each framework will be determined by the market position as the framework progresses. The estimated total value is calculated based on potential grant payments and void payments across the term of the call-off contracts awarded under the Framework.\nAppointment to the Framework will be for an initial term of eighteen (18) months with the Authority having absolute discretion to extend the initial term by a further period up to the date immediately preceding the third (3rd) anniversary of the commencement of the Framework. Each Successive Framework will be for a period of eighteen (18) months with the Authority having absolute discretion to extend the Successive Framework term by a further period of eighteen (18) months provided always that the maximum term of the Open Framework will not exceed eight (8) years from the commencement of the original Framework.\nThe Authority will re-open the Framework within the first three (3) years to admit more Suppliers to the Framework. There will be no limit on the number of Suppliers that may be appointed to the Framework. The Authority may appoint new Suppliers to the Successive Framework by re-opening the Framework in accordance with section 49 of the Act. Suppliers should refer to the applicable procurement documents published in relation to any Successive Framework for further details of the re-appointment process.\nIn the event that only one (1) Supplier bids for the Framework, the Authority reserves the right to carry out a separate value for money assessment, and at its absolute discretion, to decide to cancel the Procurement.\nPlease refer to the tender documents for further details.",
