What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Council is seeking to award contracts within the boundaries of Brighton and Hove for the provision of Care Home beds on a spot purchase basis. Out of city care homes are contracted via an alternative route.

Bidders who pass the qualifying criteria will be awarded a contract. Individual placements will be made on a spot purchase basis throughout the life of the contract.

The Council guarantees no set volume of placements under this contract and reserves the right to contract for comparable provision through other means.

Individual placements will be made via a brokerage process, where individual outcomes and costs are agreed between the Council and the Supplier. Further details are provided in the Service Specification.

The Council reserves the right to reopen this tender process at a later date to award additional contracts for the same provision.

See full documents for details, starting with the instructions in Schedule 3. This is a re-run of the tender from June, July and September 2024 and those who have been awarded a contract following one of those tenders need not apply.

PLEASE NOTE this tender is being run via e-mail. Tender documents are available by emailing procurement@brighton-hove.gov.uk
