Details

Leicestershire County Council (the Authority) is committed to the delivery of high-quality Adult Social Care Services and Health Care Services within Home Care for residents of Leicestershire who are assessed as requiring Home Care. The Authority wishes to work in 'Partnership' with independent sector Home Care Providers ("Providers"), who can demonstrate and maintain quality standards in line with the Council's Service Specification ("Specification"), which has at its core the Care Quality Commission's Regulations and is in accordance with the Care Act 2014. Providers are required to deliver services focusing on the health, safety, enablement, progression and wellbeing of people who require such services. They must enable people to gain, maintain or regain skills to help them live independently and recover from illness. The Service, wherever possible, supports people to prevent unnecessary admission to hospital and residential care. The service should also support people to be discharged from hospital or move out of long or short term, building based care.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this healthcare & pharma opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
