What is being bought

Published requirement description

Leicester City Council (the Council) Adult Social Care division has approximately 2000 customers receiving non-residential services. Of these we have a number in receipt of direct payments, with around 750 users on pre- paid (PPC) cards. There is also a separate programme for service users who the Council acts as appointee, (approx. 700) 530 of which require a PPC card and another within Childrens social care, currently approx 180.

As the current contract is coming to an end, the Council would like to continue and extend the use of pre-paid cards in Adults and Childrens Social care and potentially introduce a Pre-Paid Card solution to other areas of the Council.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 10 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 1 point. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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