Tender description

The Council was seeking to award contracts within the boundaries of Brighton and Hove for the provision of Care Home beds on a spot purchase basis. Out of city care homes are contracted via an alternative route. Bidders who passed the qualifying criteria were awarded a contract. Individual placements will be made on a spot purchase basis throughout the life of the contract. The Council guarantees no set volume of placements under this contract and reserves the right to contract for comparable provision through other means. Individual placements will be made via a brokerage process, where individual outcomes and costs are agreed between the Council and the Supplier. The Council reserves the right to reopen this tender process at a later date to award additional contracts for the same provision. Please note values are based on estimates and will vary based on referrals throughout the life of the contracts. ## Contract award Title: Care Homes within Brighton and Hove

About the buyer

Brighton and Hove City Council buys as a local authority, with procurement staff spread across its many service departments rather than one central team. Tender and quotation opportunities are advertised through South East Shared Services, with lower-value contracts also listed on Contracts Finder. A quick quotes tool on South East Shared Services handles competitive bidding for smaller contracts. Smaller purchases go through competitive written quotes, while larger contracts move to open tendering. Construction contractors are drawn from the ConstructionLine database, and the council keeps separate approved lists for adult social care and children's services.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of Brighton and Hove City Council's contract awards have been in education and training, construction work and health and social work.
