AMCV 342 - The Provision of a Supported Living Service in the Battlefield area of Shrewsbury

Shropshire Council is procuring one support provider to deliver a supported living service across three properties on a new housing estate in the Battlefields area of Shrewsbury. The council's Adult Social Care service has secured the properties following work with Wrekin Housing. The accommodation is intended for four people with a learning disability, and the successful provider will work across all three properties.

The procurement has one active lot. Its estimated gross value is £1,500,000 including VAT. The initial contract is expected to run for three years, from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030.

The council may extend it first by two years and then by a further two years, giving a maximum possible term of seven years and a maximum end date of 31 March 2034. The extensions are optional rather than committed. The enquiry deadline is 11:00am on 16 November 2026.

Tender submissions must be received by 12:00pm on the same day. The estimated award decision date is 25 November 2026. The award criteria are Quality at 50%, Price at 40% and Social Value at 10%.

The notice uses an open procedure under the light touch regime and identifies the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. It does not publish separate legal, financial or technical participation conditions, and it does not state a separate provider registration requirement. Suppliers should therefore use the procurement documents to confirm all eligibility, regulatory, staffing and evidence requirements before deciding to bid.

The official CPV classification is 85100000, Health services. The delivery region is UKG22, Shropshire CC. Electronic submissions are allowed in English.

To bid, suppliers should open the Delta eSourcing opportunity, register interest and follow the on-screen instructions. The official response route is delta-esourcing.com/respond/U3CG575QKC. Care Sync advice: review the complete Delta eSourcing documents before committing bid resources, raise clarification questions well before the published enquiry deadline, and map the response directly to the Quality, Price and Social Value weightings.
