Adult Supported Living - Procured Service Arrangement (PSA) Phase 12
The Council has an on-going requirement to procure Adult Supported Living Services. The Services will support vulnerable adults to live
in their own homes and to play an active part in their communities as much as they are able.
The Self-Directed Support (SDS) regulations offer Supported Persons a choice of provider to an extent not available through a Framework
or a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) therefore the Council is utilising an innovative Procured Service Arrangement (PSA) under the
Light Touch Rules contained in Regulations 74 – 76 of the Public Contract (Scotland) Regulations 2015.
The PSA will allow providers to be added over its 15 year term, this will facilitate Supported Person's choice.

Employability Services Procured Service Arrangement - Phase 4
The Council is seeking to appoint service providers to the Employability Procured Service Arrangement (PSA). This is a bespoke arrangement/flexible framework which has been developed primarily for Employability Services but can be accessed by all services within the Council.
The PSA will be procured using the “light touch” procedure set out in Regulations 74 -76 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 (“the 2015 Regulations”). This allows the Council to carry out a selection process which adopts the principles of equal treatment, non-discrimination and transparency and complies with procurement best practice without requiring the use of the traditional open or restricted procedure set out in the 2015 Regulations.
The PSA has a broad scope of service delivery with the opportunity for many providers to be appointed. There is no limit on the number of providers who can be appointed to any of the lots under the PSA. The PSA remains open for its lifetime which allows for new providers to be added over its term, at regular intervals which will be advised by the Council. Applicants to the PSA will be evaluated in ‘Phases’, based on the closing date for each Phase. Following the closing of each Phase, the PSA will re-open for new applications for the next Phase.
South Lanarkshire Council has an ongoing and recurring requirement for the supply and application of highway surfacing and road marking services, including but not limited to anti‑skid surfacing, thermoplastic line markings, road studs and cats eyes, across the Council’s road network.
The Council is publishing this Prior Information Notice to engage with the market and provide early visibility of potential future procurement activity. The PIN is intended to inform suppliers of the nature and scope of the forthcoming requirement.
The Council anticipates that services will be delivered in accordance with relevant industry standards, health and safety legislation, and traffic management requirements, with a focus on quality, durability and minimising disruption to road users.
