What is being bought

Published requirement description

Powys County Council (hereinafter referred to as “the Council”) is awarding to a suitably competent, experienced, and qualified provider (hereinafter referred to as “Contractor”) for the provision of Adult Disabilities Respite Services (‘the Service’).

The service relates to the delivery of respite support for adults (18+) with a learning disability. The service will enable the carer and cared for to be part of their wider community by maintaining independence, reducing isolation, and increasing social networks and friendships. The purpose of respite services is to enable individuals to have an opportunity to have a short break away from their usual home, in a setting where they will be supported to make choices, acquire socially valued roles, status and self-esteem, active citizenship skills, as appropriate to their unique needs, wishes and aspirations.

The service will be delivered by a provider registered with Care Inspectorate Wales.

The contract will be for 3 years with the option to extend for a further 1 year plus 1 year at the Council's discretion.

The Council intends to let the contract in compliance with Regulations 74 – 77 Light Touch Regime (LTR) under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015) and will use a “pseudo” Open Procedure.

The Council is awarding a contract, which allows flexibility while complying with Treaty principles of transparency and equal treatment of providers.
