Market Engagement Event Notice:- Neath Port Talbot Council intends to invite tender submissions for the provision of a Supported Living Service for Younger Adults with Mental Health needs which should be published around the end of October 2023. It is currently felt that the contract will be for a period of five (5) years with the option to extend by period or periods of a further twenty four (24) months and will be tendered on the basis of M.E.A.T (Most Economically Advantageous Tender). It’s anticipated that the contract will commence on the 1st April 2024, however bidders should note that there will need to be some flexibility with the contract start date as the scheme is a new build and therefore may be subject to change as the tender will be run in parallel with the refurbishment of the property. As the service is a new development there’s no incumbent provider or TUPE requirements. Bidders will therefore need to plan for recruiting and training appropriately experienced staff in line with a mobilisation plan and a robust specification. Three individuals have been identified to take up tenancies within the property and will require personal care and support consistent with the requirements of Care Inspectorate Wales. The successful provider (i.e. contract holder) would need to be registered with Care Inspectorate Wales from the outset and remain registered throughout the duration of the contract. A market engagement event has been arranged for the 26th September, 1.00pm until around 3.00pm where potential bidders who are interested in delivering the above service are invited to meet and discuss with Council Officers their thoughts on how the service will be tendered. The event is also arranged as an opportunity for the Council to seek the views on the relative strengths and weaknesses of the model planned and to explore ways to improve service delivery and which may be included in the service specification. There will also be the opportunity for any prospective tenderers to ask the Council any questions it may have around the tender. The format of the event will consist of the presentations from the following: - The Council – the service to be delivered, plans for the scheme and the tender - First Choice Housing Association – the Regional Social Landlord (RSL) for the intended property to be supported and management agreement to be complied with Providers who are interested in engaging with the Council at this event should contact Pam Morgans on the following email address: ccu@npt.gov.uk or alternatively on 01639 686350. Please note this invitation is for a maximum of 2 representatives per organisation. Places are limited and will be awarded on a first come first served basis. The event will be held via Microsoft Teams, where the link will be supplied after registering an interest with Pam Morgans. Having Microsoft Teams installed would therefore be a perquisite to attending this event.
