Description

Leicester City Council ('the Authority') working with Leicester City NHS Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) invited tenders for the provision of Domiciliary Support Service 2020 Lot 1: General Domiciliary Support in Leicester City ('the Service'). The Authority wishes to ensure that its procurement opportunities are open to small and micro local enterprises and voluntary and community sector organisations as it appreciates the very important role they play in the local economy. Tenders from these organisations were particularly welcomed. The Authority encouraged consortium or sub-contracting arrangements for this procurement opportunity. The Authority conducted this procurement under the Light Touch Regime for social and other specific services, as set out in the Public Contract Regulations 2015, at Section 7 (Regulations 74 to 77) and Schedule 3. The procurement process was not conducted under the Public Contract Regulations 2015; however, it was similar to that of an open procedure. The process, unlike an open procedure, included the flexibility, as allowed under the Light Touch Regime with various evaluation stages as detailed in the Invitation to Tender documentation.
