Request for Information - Recommissioning of Home Care in Buckinghamshire

PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION NOT A TENDER Buckinghamshire is looking to develop a new procurement model for the commissioning of home care across the county. The Council is looking to develop a Dynamic Purchasing Vehicle (DPV) - a hybrid between a dynamic purchasing system and a framework. Suppliers will bid to join the DPV and, if successful in meeting the required quality/price thresholds, will be accepted onto the DPV. Individual packages of care will then be sourced through mini competitions. It is intended that the DPV will become the primary way of accessing council commissioned home care packages going forward. The DPV will be utilised for all new packages of care from the go live date. Any providers that the Council currently works with will need to apply to join the DPV in order to be able to bid for future packages of care. We welcome your input to ensure it is fit for purpose.
