That the contract for housing management services at Lewis House be awarded for a period of five years from 1st January 2018 to 31st December 2022 with the option to extend for a further period of up to two years.
That authorisation to extend the contract for a period of up to two years be delegated to the Executive Director: Education, Care and Health Services in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for Care Services, the Director: Commissioning, the Director: Finance and the Director: Corporate Services.
Lewis House is a community venue which offers a range of services to Bromley residents, giving people with disabilities the opportunity to test out equipment and view adaptations before purchase. This provision is currently delivered via a contract that is due to expire on 31st December 2017. A recent tender process for the delivery of this provision failed to attract any bids, and to meet service need and ensure no break in service, the Director: Commissioning and Interim Director: Programmes granted authority for a new contract to be negotiated with the current provider. A proposal to continue the contract with the current provider has subsequently been agreed and the Care Services PDS Committee has recommended that the contract be granted for a period of five years from 1st January 2018 to 31st December 2022, with the option to extend for a further period of up to two years.
