Report ACH19010

 

The Council operated a number of separate contracts with specialist learning Disability (LD) providers for care and support into various LD supported living properties. At its meeting on 10th July 2019 the executive had decided to align the end dates of these contracts to April 2021 to support a wider commissioning exercise.

 

The report set out a strategy for a major procurement exercise to align and restructure what were currently five contracts covering sixteen properties and serving seventy-eight adults. The annual value of the contracts was estimated to be £4.7m per annum, with an estimated value over the proposed 5+3 contract term of £37.4m.

 

The report had been scrutinised by the Adult Care and Health PDS Committee on 19th November 2019, and the Committee had supported the recommendations.

RESOLVED that proceeding to procurement be agreed for the learning disability contracts detailed in the report.
