** This is not a live opportunity/ call for competition ** This Notice is published to clarify the procedural position in relation to the procurement referenced above. A UK12 notice was issued in error during this procurement - identifier 2026/S 000-027896, published 26 March 2026. Prior to this, a UK 4 was issued identifier - ocds-h6vhtk-0659c5 on the 23rd February 2026. No contract award was made, and the issue of the UK12 does not affect the underlying procurement process, which has otherwise been conducted lawfully and in accordance with the published documents. As a result of the UK12 being issued in error, the Contracting Authority is unable to proceed using the original notice sequence as the notices cannot be linked, or amended. A reduced tendering period has therefore been selected under this notice as this is not a live opportunity. This Notice is therefore published to correct the position and to ensure transparency to the market. Following publication of this Notice, the Contracting Authority intends to proceed with the publication of a UK 6 notice, to the successful supplier, following a compliant evaluation. ** This is not a live opportunity/ call for competition **

Nottinghamshire County Council is procuring a Framework Agreement for the provision of residential and/or nursing care home services for adults. The Council intends to appoint multiple successful bidders as Providers under the Framework. The Framework will support individuals whose primary support needs include learning disabilities, autism, mental health needs, physical disabilities, brain injuries and sensory impairments. Services may include standard placements, short breaks, emergency placements, forensic provision and exceptional and highly specialist care arrangements. The service is primarily for adults. The Council may also use the Framework to commission provision for young people aged 16 or 17, provided that the relevant home satisfies all applicable registration, policy and regulatory requirements, including those of the Care Quality Commission and/or Ofsted. For older adults, typically those aged 65 and over, the Council will ordinarily commission residential provision through alternative contracts that the Council has developed specifically for residential care for older adults. It is anticipated that this Framework will only be used for people aged 65 years and over in exceptional circumstances where suitable provision cannot be identified via the alternative contracts. Most placements are expected to be within the seven districts of Nottinghamshire. However, the Council may commission placements outside of Nottinghamshire where required. Bidders are advised that, following the UK Government's publication of the English Devolution White Paper in December 2024, a programme of Local Government Reorganisation ("LGR") is underway which may affect the governance, boundaries and/or legal status of the Council during the term of any Framework or Call-Off Contract entered pursuant to this procurement. As a consequence of LGR, any Framework or Call-Off Contract may be required to be transferred, assigned or novated (in whole or in part) to one or more successor authorities or other public bodies established as part of LGR, in accordance with applicable legislation. The Council intends to establish this Framework for an initial term of 6 years, with the option to extend for up to two further periods of 24 months (6+2+2). The maximum potential duration of the Framework is therefore 10 years. Appointment to the Framework does not guarantee a Provider any volume of placements or minimum level of expenditure. The Council reserves the right, at its discretion, to advertise one or more further opportunities to admit additional Providers to the Framework. No dates have been set for any such opportunities. Any future opportunity will be separately advertised and conducted in accordance with the applicable procurement requirements. A bidder that is unsuccessful in this procurement may submit a new tender in response to any future advertised opportunity but a bidder that has been successful will not need to re-apply. For the avoidance of doubt this Framework is not an Open Framework within the meaning of the Procurement Act 2023. Full details of the requirements are set out in the procurement documents.

Nottinghamshire County Council has set up a DPS provider list under the light touch regime of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR2015) for the provision of Residential Care for Younger Adults.

Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) event related to the provision of Specialist Children's Residential Provision Please note this is not an opportunity to tender but is an information gathering exercise to inform the Council's future requirement. Leicestershire County Council Children's and Family Services have undertaken a review of local residential sufficiency as part of the Children's Social Care Market Position and Sufficiency Statement 2024-2027 and our Corporate Better Leicestershire efficiency project. This work is focused on understanding how we can better meet the needs of children and young people with the most complex needs, whilst ensuring sufficient, high-quality and sustainable provision for the future. Our review has identified increasing demand for specialist, regulated residential placements, with growing reliance on solo provision, enhanced staffing arrangements and other high-cost placements for children and young people with complex needs. We are therefore exploring a range of potential options to increase local specialist residential capacity, improve outcomes and achieve greater placement stability. These options include, but are not limited to, innovative residential models and approaches to developing specialist provision. We are undertaking early market engagement to support its ongoing options appraisal for future specialist residential provision for children and young people with complex needs. This engagement is intended to help the Council understand the range of potential delivery models, market capacity, innovation, risks, opportunities and practical considerations before any decisions are made about future commissioning or delivery arrangements. The Council has an existing strategic partnership with Barnardo's through the Children's Innovation Partnership (CIP). As part of its wider options appraisal, the Council may explore whether some emerging models could be developed through that partnership. However, no decision has been made about the future delivery route. This engagement should not be taken as an indication that any future service will necessarily be commissioned through the market, delivered through CIP, or progressed through any particular arrangement. The purpose of this engagement is to gather open and constructive market insight at an early stage. We are keen therefore to invite and hear from suitably experienced providers about potential models, delivery approaches, risks, opportunities and alternatives that may better meet the needs of children and young people. We would like to invite you to join us and Barnardo's, to participate in an early market engagement event with a purpose of supporting open dialogue with the market and to gather constructive feedback that will help inform the Council's thinking. The event will provide an opportunity to: • Share the Council's current understanding of local sufficiency pressures and future demand. • Outline the outcomes the Council is seeking to achieve for children and young people with complex needs. • Explore potential specialist residential models, including innovative and flexible approaches to local provision. • Assess the potential for delivery of all or part of any proposed model by the external market. • Understand provider views on deliverability, capacity, workforce, property, partnership models, risks and implementation considerations. • Identify whether there are alternative approaches or market-led solutions that could better support the Council's aims. • Inform the Council's ongoing options appraisal and any future commissioning intentions. We would welcome participation from providers with experience of delivering specialist residential care and support for children and young people with complex needs, including providers who can offer practical insight into service design, delivery challenges and innovative approaches to improving local sufficiency. Please note: This engagement is exploratory only. It does not constitute a procurement process, call for competition, invitation to tender, or commitment by the Council to undertake any future procurement activity. Participation in this engagement will not give any provider an advantage or disadvantage in relation to any future opportunity, should one arise.
