What is being bought

An Individual Service Fund (ISF) is one way of managing a person's personal budget for care and support: • The provider manages the budget on behalf of the individual, unlike a Direct Payment where the individual manages the funds themselves. • ISFs offer greater flexibility and choice, enabling people to shape their care around their preferences. • Individuals can choose to use multiple providers to meet their needs. • There is flexibility to carry forward (roll over) funds or support into future weeks or months, allowing people to plan for specific activities or goals.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 85. The category anchor is Health and social work services (85000000); 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 setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 8538,3731 median · 19.7 average (22,930 of 38,373 with a bid count)1.8 average (24,592 of 38,373 with named award suppliers)10 comparable price pairs

“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.

Indicative price outcome

£13,011,990 is the median lowest-valid-bid benchmark for the broad CPV market sample, against this procedure’s published value of £20,000,000.

This is a historical comparator, not a bid-price forecast or a guaranteed saving. It excludes records where the published values cannot be sensibly compared and does not adjust for lot structure, quality weighting, framework terms or scope.
