Extension of existing Dynamic Purchasing System for Care and Support Services for people with Learning Disabilities

Description

Extension of the Council's Dynamic Purchasing System for its ongoing provision of care and support services for adults with learning disabilities aged 18 and over. The DPS is divided into the following Lots: Lot 1a Moderate to severe learning disabilities Care & Support Lot 1b Moderate to severe learning disabilities Care & Support with Accommodation Lot 2a Profound and multiple learning disabilities and /or complex health needs Care and Support Lot 2b Profound and multiple learning disabilities and /or complex health needs Care and Support with Accommodation Lot 3a Learning disabilities and behaviour that challenges and/or mental health issues Care and Support Lot 3b Learning disabilities and behaviour that challenges and/or mental health issues Care and Support with Accommodation Therefore, the Authority wishes to extend the validity of its existing DPS for a further 25 months starting from 09 October 2023 until 08 November 2025. Please note that organisations can apply to join the Council's DPS at any time during its validity if they satisfy the selection criteria and none of the grounds for exclusion apply. If an organisation admitted to the DPS ceases to satisfy the Council's selection requirements it is likely that it may be excluded or suspended from taking part in any competition. If an admitted organisation fails one of the grounds for exclusion during the validity of the DPS the Council may be required to remove the supplier from the DPS. For the avoidance of doubt, those providers that are already on the existing DPS do not need to respond to this contract notice as they are already admitted on their respective Lots. In accordance with Regulation 53 of The Public Contracts Regulations 2015, the Council's original procurement documents when establishing this DPS in 2018 will continue to be available within the London Tenders Portal. The procurement documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge, at: https://procontract.duenorth.com/Advert/Index?advertId=a9ad0bd4-7878-e811-80ed-005056b64545 For further information regarding this DPS, please also refer to the original OJEU Contract Notice reference: 2018/S 124-282380, URL: https://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:282380-2018:TEXT:EN:HTML
