Working Age Adults Care Home Services

Disgrifiad caffael

Carmarthenshire County Council, in collaboration with regional partners Pembrokeshire County Council and Ceredigion County Council, is developing a regional framework for Working Age Adult Care Home Services across the West Wales region.

The proposed Framework will be structured into three service Lots, reflecting the primary client groups:

Lot 1: Learning Disabilities, including Autism

Lot 2: Mental Health

Lot 3: Physical Disabilities

Providers may apply for one or more Lots, depending on their area of expertise and service provision. The Lots are intended to support a more structured and consistent approach to commissioning across the region, ensuring that services can meet a range of needs for working age adults.

The proposed Framework will be open to:

- Providers with existing care home provision within the region; and/or

- Providers who intend to establish a care home service within the region within the next 12 months

Providers joining the Framework will be required to demonstrate a commitment to supporting citizens from across the West Wales region and prioritising regional placements.

This procurement is being conducted as a Light Touch Contract under Section 9 of the Procurement Act 2023 (PA23). In accordance with Section 23(6), the Authority considers proximity between service users and providers to be important for the effective delivery of the services and therefore in order to be included on the Framework suppliers must have an existing care home provision within the region (Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and/or Pembrokeshire); and/or intend to establish a care home service within the region within the next 12 months.

The Authority may, in accordance with the flexibility afforded under the Light Touch Regime (Section 9, PA23), undertake a refresh of this Framework at one or more intervals during the Framework Term.

The Authority will publish a Tender Notice for each refresh event, clearly setting out the requirements, evaluation methodology and timeline. Suppliers admitted through the refresh shall be appointed on the same substantive terms as existing Framework Suppliers. The refresh may include, but shall not be limited to, varying the number, scope, extent and description of the Lots, Services and/or Pricing (as the case may be), together with the appointment of additional (new) Suppliers onto the Framework Agreement to maintain market access and continuity of service.

Business Wales Business Wales will deliver a live tender workshop to support providers interested in applying for the Working Age Adult Care Home Services Framework. The event will be held on 30/07/2026 and providers must register: https://wales.business-events.org.uk/en/events/working-age-adults-care-home-services/

Disgrifiad o weithrediad y fframwaith

Call-Off Contracts will be awarded to Framework Suppliers in accordance with the provisions set out in Appendix 4 of the Framework Agreement. .

There are two Selection Processes:

Direct Award Process (User Choice) - Under the Procurement Act 2023, Section 41 (Schedule 5, paragraphs 15–17)

A contract is a user choice contract where:

- the services are of a kind specified in regulations under section 9 (i.e., light touch contracts),

-they are supplied for the benefit of a particular individual, and

- a contracting authority would be required by statute to have regard to the views of the individual (or their carer) as to who should supply the services.

The conditions for user choice apply where:

- the individual (or their carer) has expressed a preference as to who should supply the services, or the nature of the services is such that only one supplier is capable of providing them

Selection Process- Enhanced User Choice

The Selection Process will be undertaken where:

- There is more than one suitable Framework supplier able to meet the assessed needs

The Selection Process will be commenced by the Authority issuing to all Framework Suppliers (other than any Framework Supplier which is suspended from the Framework Agreement) in the relevant Lot or Lots an Invitation to Tender.

The selection process will consider price and quality.

Tenderers who pass the selection process will be considered by the individual or their representative for the final decision on placement suitability. The Call-Off Contract will be awarded under Enhanced User Choice

Costs for both selection processes will be agreed in line with Care Cubed
