Description

Leicester City Council invited Tenders for the provision of Occupational Therapy Trusted Assessor Learning and Development training through an open procurement process under Procurement Act 2023. The procurement exercise has now been completed and assessment summaries have been issued. The publication of this notice will formally commence the voluntary standstill period of 8 working days. The standstill period will expire on the midnight of 4th August 2026. Leicester City Council is seeking a provider to develop and deliver face to face Trusted Assessor training to staff working across the Adult Social Care and Safeguarding Division. The training will support staff who are not part of the Occupational Therapy Service to identify when equipment or minor adaptations can help someone to live safely and well in their own home, without requiring specialist Occupational Therapist skills. The training will focus on understanding the built environment of people’s homes in Leicester in relation to adaptations and provision of equipment, including how to arrange a prescribed list of equipment and small modifications via a contractor. The provider will deliver 11 full days of face to face training for approximately 150 to 155 staff between a six month period, using local venues arranged by the Council. The provider will develop training resources, ensure trainers are appropriately qualified and understand local need, and ensure the training is culturally appropriate and reflects the diverse communities in Leicester. The proposed Contract period will be for six months with no option to extend. ## Contract award Title: SCE0040 - Occupational Therapy Trusted Assessor Learning and Development
