## About this tender

A multi-supplier Supported Living Framework Agreement with Plymouth City Council (PCC) and NHS Devon Clinical Commissioning Group (Devon CCG) was let in July 2017 as 4 increments of 3 yrs. The Framework provides a range of community services including support to maintain health and wellbeing, personal care, support with finances, social recreation, tenancy related support, underpinned with the principles of self-determination and choice. Devon CCG as Contracting Body accesses the Framework Agreement independently of PCC and enters into direct contractual relationships with the successful suppliers following a call-off. The form of agreement used for the call-off contract is the NHS Shorter Form Contract for services.

As intended and stated in the procurement documents at the time, PCC on behalf of itself as principal and Devon CCG (as Contracting Body) is now conducting a procurement exercise to give new providers the opportunity to join the Plymouth Supported Living Framework in July 2020. This multi-supplier Framework Agreement currently provides supported living for approx. 19,000 to 20,000 hours per week for a range of community support services including support to maintain health and wellbeing, personal care, support with finances, social recreation, tenancy related support, underpinned with the principles of self-determination and choice. This figure includes individual support hours and sleep-in/waking nights and shared support hours and sleep-in/waking nights.

The procurement will be a one-stage process that will include both Selection and Award criteria. Tenders will be evaluated in accordance with Section 4 of the ITT Instruction Document.

The Framework Agreement will be awarded in 3 yearly increments for a period of up to 9 years (i.e. 3yrs+3yrs+3yrs). Prices will be refreshed and new suppliers will have the opportunity to join the Framework Agreement every 3 years.
