Published requirement description

Telford & Wrekin Council are looking to receive applications from Providers to join a multi-provider Framework to deliver specialist care services for Adults with Learning Disabilities, Autism, Mental Health and Acquired Brain Injury needs, in suitable locations.

We want to work with established, experienced providers who deliver a curious, compassionate and solution focused approach central to delivering a person-centred service.

The services we intend to commission are intended for adults, but it is expected that providers, where appropriate have the correct registration to support young adults during transition and working in line with the Preparing for Adulthood (PfA) principles and support delivery of outcomes around employment and training, friendships, relationships and communities, independent living and good health.

The services will be split into 4 Lots covering increasing levels of need and complexity.

  • The authority expects to re-tender this requirement around 12 Jan 2027, 23:59 GMT.
  • No preliminary market engagement: Market Engagement has been carried out UK3 published 17/09/2025 As we are establishing a framework, further market engagement for release 2 is not necessary

Lots and requirements (4)Procurement structure

4 lots · all with a published value

Every one of these 4 lots carries the same published figure, £65,000,000: 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.

i

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).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored
Lot distribution rule: Suppliers can be apply for any number and combination of the 4 lots available. They MUST apply for Lot 1 as this is the basis of the 3 other lots
What this means for your bid
  • “The Specialist Care Framework (Release 2)” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract: each call-off is a further competition, so the pricing contest starts after appointment.
