## About this tender

The Commissioner confirmed that whilst they were seeking a Prime Provider, they welcomed partnerships, consortiums and/or sub-contractual models, which was at Bidders' discretion.

Services are scheduled to commence on 1st April 2026. The Contract will be for an initial term of 3 (three) years, with an option to extend for a further 1 (one) year, plus another 1 (one) year as defined at the sole discretion of the Commissioners.

Below is a high-level overview of the requirements to be delivered:

The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has recently announced a restructure of Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), with the plan for Gloucestershire ICB to initially cluster and then merge with Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire ICB. There is limited information on whether CHC services will remain within ICBs or join another organisation within the wider ICS footprint. When the organisational changes are known the relevant amendments required to the contract will be revised with the successful provider and will be in line with the modification sections of the Procurement Act 2023 (PA23) regulations

The Contracting Authority will observe a 8 working day standstill period starting from the following working day of this notice prior.

The Standstill Period will end on 28 October 2025.
