The brief

The Council of the Borough of Kirklees (the “Council”) is conducting this procurement exercise, in accordance with the Light Touch Regime of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102), and intends to establish an Electronic Market Place (“EMP”) with Providers with relevant experience and ability to provide Supported Living Services on a non-exclusive basis to Adults with eligible Social Care needs for the Council.

The EMP may be used by the Council and by the NHS Kirklees Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) (subject to CCG governance approval).

The Council wishes to establish a Supported Living Services (SLS) EMP to replace the current Framework Agreement.

As the current Framework Agreement does not allow new Providers to be able to join, the new SLS EMP will allow new Providers to join.
