II.2.4) Description of the procurement
Neath Port Talbot Council is currently looking to invite tender submissions for the provision of their overnight short break services for children and young people with disabilities, which we anticipate to be published around January 2022 for an August 2022 contract start.
We can confirm that the tendered service will deliver the ‘Park House’ overnight short breaks service to provide children with disabilities with positive experiences away from home and to support them to achieve improved outcomes.
The service serves in part to meet the Council’s response to the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014.
The service will be tendered on the basis of M.E.A.T (Most Economically Advantageous Tender) and TUPE may apply.
A market engagement event has been arranged for Friday 26th November 2021. Providers who may be interested in delivering the service are invited to meet and discuss the service with Council officers.
The event is an opportunity for the Council to seek views on the relative strengths and weaknesses of the service model and to explore ways to improve service delivery which may help to inform the service specification. There will also be an opportunity for the provider to ask the Council any questions it may have around the tender.
The format of the event will consist of the Council offering 1 hour slots with each provider, which will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams. Slots will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
For providers who book to attend the event, they will receive a discussion paper which will be emailed in advance of the event.
Providers who are interested in engaging with the Council through this event should contact Pam Morgans on the following email address ccu@npt.gov.uk or alternatively on 01639 686350 confirming they would like to attend.
The Council may also extend the events to other days should it be required.
