Published requirement description

Oxfordshire County Council has an Open Framework for the provision of accommodation and Support to vulnerable young people aged between 16-25 years, old including young people who are under the care of the Council. Providers must meet the criteria to claim enhanced housing benefit and for those who are able to support 16 to 18 years of age, appropriately registered.

Services have been characterised into three Lots:

  1. Shared Supported Housing Accommodation
  2. Self-Contained Supported Housing Accommodation
  3. Supported Lodgings

The Framework is aimed primarily at developing capacity in Oxfordshire. In addition, tenders will be accepted for the following locations, Northamptonshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Hampshire, Surrey, London, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire.

This will be an Open Framework with rolling application windows throughout the lifetime of the agreement. Once accepted on the framework providers will have opportunities to bid for individual placements and or blocks via mini competitions. The Framework will initially supplement established Young People Supported Accommodation contracts and is envisioned to be the vehicle to replace these contracts as they are recommissioned in the future.

The Council does not guarantee the volume of spend that will be awarded under this Framework but based on projections we expect approximately £70 million to be spent across the life of the Framework.

This award notice relates to the contracts awarded to suppliers who applied and were successful in Round 2.

3 lots · all with a published value · win at most 3 of them · same evaluation weights on every lot

Every one of these 3 lots carries the same published figure, £70,000,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 40
  • Price: 60
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Framework - Start Well (Children’s) Supported Services” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
