Tender description
This is a below threshold direct award under the Light Touch Regime, on the basis of Schedule 5 (7), continuity of service whilst an existing procurement is concluding. The Best Interest Assessors (BIA) service is a required statutory function under the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards. It is therefore unavoidable for the local authority not to provide this service. The service assists the Council to deliver their statutory responsibilities, as outlined in the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and subsequent Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards, to ensure that where a decision to deprive someone of their liberty is required it is made lawfully and based on relevant best practice, guidance and case law. ## Contract award Title: FEW1510 - Provision of Adults Social Care Services For Best Interests Assessors Service

About the buyer
Leicester City Council buys as a local authority. Some contracts run through outside frameworks, including ESPO and the Government Commercial Agency. Suppliers apply to those bodies directly to become approved framework suppliers. Supplier selection also weighs social value, such as local job creation and environmental impact, alongside price.
Over the past 5 years, most of Leicester City Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and software and information systems.
