Renfrewshire Council has completed the procurement process for a new multi-provider Flexible Framework Agreement aimed at providing Supported Living and Community Based Support Services for adults with social care needs, specifically those relating to mental health, learning disabilities, autism, physical disabilities, and complex needs. The Flexible Framework, which runs from 1st November 2024 to 31st October 2028 with potential extensions until 2031, covers the region of UKM83. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 and has an anticipated value of £210 million.
It concluded with the awarding of contracts on 8th November 2024. This flexible framework creates ample opportunities for various businesses, including providers of personal care, housing support, non-personal care, and those offering emotional and practical support services. Notably, the framework is designed to allow new entrants to join, promoting continuous growth and opportunity within the industry.
Organisations that meet the Care Inspectorate's registration requirements and possess relevant insurance coverage and technical experience are well-suited to compete within this framework, ensuring that the most qualified and capable suppliers deliver essential services, thus contributing to business growth and community development.
The Tender Procedure shall be conducted in accordance with an above Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) Threshold as an Open procedure relating to Services under Schedule 3 - Social and Other Specific Services of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.

The scope of the Flexible Framework falls within the 'Social and Other Specific Services' category and is subject to the procurement regimes set out in section 7, Social and Other Specific Services, both of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. As such, a flexible approach has been designed which will allow New Entrants to apply to be on the Flexible Framework. The Council will call off from the Flexible Framework and invites responses to the Invitation to Tender (ITT) for a place on this Flexible Framework from suitably qualified Providers. Tenderers should note there is no guaranteed level of spend for any ISC awarded under the Flexible Framework; there is also no guarantee of payment being made to a Provider solely by appointment to the Flexible Framework.. Prospective providers must meet the selection criteria as detailed in this Contract Notice and also meet the required technical criteria as detailed in the Tender Documents.
