Total Quantity or Scope

Our Context: The Brighton & Hove commissioning strategy is to reduce the number of people being placed in residential care, placed out of the city and in long term services that do not meet their needs. Supported Living and Community Support are effective in meeting this goal. The Council is committed to working collaboratively with providers to develop a high-quality provision that contributes to improved outcomes for our residents. Through the new commission, BHCC aims to: • Continue to work with providers with existing placements and transition them to the new service specification and terms and conditions to ensure alignment with the new DPS to be let later in 2023 • Attract new providers to the market and create a more diverse market that provides more choice for people. • Ensure a strengths-based approach that focus on outcomes for people who receive support. • Enable the Council to meet the care and support needs of residents who have been assessed as having eligible social care needs in line with the Care Act 2014 These services are listed under Schedule 3 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 and any subsequent competition will be undertaken in accordance with the "Light Touch Regime".
