Coverage: 95 active published awards; 14 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
Lancashire County Council (LCC) is undertaking an exercise to re commission the Short-Term Beds External Preferred Provider List (PPL). This service enables individuals who are either in an acute hospital or have experienced an issue at home to have a period of recovery and/or ongoing support in a bed-based setting so they can regain a level of independence and return home.
The Authority wishes to engage with key stakeholders in relation to some of the key elements of the proposed new service, including changes from the existing provision. We invite providers to attend one of the sessions where commissioners will provide an overview of the proposed service offer, intended procurement details and approximate timelines. more details can be found here: https://www.lancashire.gov.uk/business/tenders-and-procurement/tenders/short-term-beds-external-preferred-provider-list-ppl/
