## About this tender

The current contracts for Homecare services in Somerset expires at the end of March 2024 and we have a commissioning plan underway to have a new contract in place from April 2024.

Is it considered that the current model and demand pressures have led to a service which isn’t as efficient as it could be and that the recommissioning of the service will provide an opportunity to look at different models that reduce inefficiencies and bring better outcomes for Somerset’s residents.

The overall aim is to co-produce a more localised place-based offer which creates an environment for more collaborative working.

Further to the initial engagement sessions held during October, we would like to continue the conversations by holding further sessions during January, with a view to focussing in on some of the available options for the commissioning and delivery of homecare services in the future.
