Gloucestershire County Council (GCC) is changing how it contracts for Residential and Nursing Care from 2026/27. Following feedback from providers and other stakeholders, we are developing a new contractual arrangement to replace the current Pre-Placement Contract. The new contract will cover residential care, nursing care, and short-term/respite placements for adults aged 18 and over, including people with needs relating to frailty, dementia, physical disabilities, acquired brain injury, learning disabilities, mental health, autism and forensic support. The arrangement has a total maximum value of £816 million.

We wish to appoint a lead architect who will subcontract for a series of other professional services to draught and submit a full planning application for the Wessex House site. Pre-application advice has been sought previously and the pre-application documents and feedback from planning officers will be made available to the successful consultant team. Wessex House was formally the site of buildings connected to the Gloucester Poor Law Union Workhouse. Prior to the construction of the workhouse in the 1830s, the site was open fields, and then garden plots. Additional facilities, namely an Infirmary and Casual wards, were built later. The buildings were requisitioned during the Second World War, but were then demolished between 1949 and 1950. The land was leased to the General Electric Company, who constructed Magnet House, later to become Wessex House on the site. Wessex House was itself demolished between 2018 and 2020. The site extends to 0.60 of an acre and is bounded by Network Rail land forming part of

Somerset Council is developing future options for its housing and homelessness provision. The aim is to establish a more flexible, person‑centred, and solutions‑focused offer that can better meet the diverse and changing needs of residents. This includes strengthening our homelessness prevention approach and expanding opportunities for social prescribing into appropriate accommodation and support pathways. As part of this work, the Council intends to establish a Countywide Framework that brings together previously fragmented services into a more coherent, consistent, and coordinated system. This new model will support improved accessibility, clearer pathways, and more equitable provision across Somerset. We want to move toward a model that enables tailored interventions, promotes independence, and provides responsive support at the right time. Through this market engagement activity, the Council is seeking insight and feedback from providers to help shape a more effective and collaborative system. This engagement also forms part of the wider re‑commissioning programme, where joint ownership, partnership working, and co‑production with providers and stakeholders - including Somerset Council, commissioned service providers, housing partners & referral agencies, Somerset NHS Foundation Trust, Public Health, VCFSE partners, and people with lived experience - will be key elements of the future design (this list is not exhaustive). It is anticipated that any new arrangements would commence on 1st April 2028

We are seeking new digital solutions across Housing, Finance, CRM, and HR that offer strong, modern functionality and can integrate seamlessly with one another. The goal is to adopt standard, out of the box processes rather than heavily customised systems, ensuring consistency, efficiency, and improved user experience across the organisation. The desired platforms should: •Housing: Provide end to end housing management including tenancy, maintenance, compliance, scheduling, and mobile capability, with integrated financial and HR linked features. •Finance: Offer intuitive financial management, automated workflows, real time data and analytics, asset management, and seamless links to Housing, HR, procurement, and CRM systems. •CRM: Deliver a single, accurate customer view, strong case management, integrated communications, appointment scheduling, and connectivity to Housing, Finance, and HR. •HR: Support workforce planning, recruitment, onboarding, learning, performance management, and analytics, with links to Finance, CRM, and Housing for workforce availability, payroll, and resource planning. All solutions must support robust integration, including standard APIs and pre built connectors, to enable smooth data sharing across business areas. A single supplier delivering a unified platform is preferred, but Magna will consider multiple suppliers if necessary.

Swindon Borough Council is undertaking Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) with providers across the market to inform the future commissioning of supported housing services for adults within the local authority area. The Council currently commissions a range of supported housing provision and is seeking to use this engagement to help shape its future approach. This builds on insight gathered from current providers, professionals, and people with lived experience. The scope of this exercise focuses on supported housing services for adults with the following needs: • People experiencing or at risk of homeslessness • individuals with a mental health need • adults with disabilities It should be noted that some elements of current provision will not be included, as existing arrangements are due to conclude at different times. Separate arrangements are being developed for children’s supported housing, including a dedicated preliminary market engagement and subsequent tender exercise. It is anticipated that future services would involve the provision of accommodation and support for adults who are unable to maintain independent living. This includes individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness, and those with disabilities or mental health needs. Services will be expected to support individuals to sustain accommodation, promote independence and wellbeing, enable access to wider services, and support people to move on to and maintain independent living with little or no ongoing support. This engagement is being undertaken to better understand the supported housing market for adults, including current pressures, capacity, and potential future risks. It does not form part of a procurement exercise and does not seek pricing, commitments, or guarantees. Providers may request clarification on the questions. Responses will be shared, where appropriate, to support a consistent understanding across the market.
