Publisher note: After this tendering process has been completed and the contracts have been awarded the Council will be running further competitions for the same service. This is to allow new providers to apply for a contract for Community Support and to allow those who are unsuccessful first time around to re-apply. This process will include the same documentation as this tender (with the exception of dates etc). These competitions will be live for the period of 3 to 6 months. However, if the Council receives a high level interest for the service the Council reserves the right to close the competition at an earlier date. During the course of the contract period the range and scope of these services may be subject to modification and variation to meet the changing needs and requirements of the Council, potential changes in legislation and the changing demands placed on the Council by its customers. These changes may include (but are not limited to): - • initiatives to deal with short term emergencies, facilitating hospital discharge, prevention, night-sits etc. • increases or decreases in funding - this will usually be due to reductions or additions in budget allocations as part of the Council's budget setting processes, It may also be as a consequence of additional funding streams which were unknown at the time of awarding the contract but which are provided to increase the volume of services delivered • Changes in legislation that may for example require the inclusion of new customer groups • The identification of additional service recipients, not originally captured by the scope of the contract • Opportunities offered by emerging/new technologies • Working towards increasingly flexible models of commissioning
