About

The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council, in partnership with Bradford Children and Families Trust and wider system partners, is seeking suppliers to join an Open Framework to deliver short break activities and personal care services for children with disabilities, complex health needs, or special educational needs. The Framework will run for an initial period of eight years, be divided into three Lots (Lot 1: CQC‑regulated personal care services; Lot 2: short break activities regulated by CQC or Ofsted; Lot 3: community‑based short break activities that are unregulated), allow suppliers to bid for multiple Lots, appoint a maximum of 12 suppliers to Lot 1 and admit all suppliers meeting benchmark requirements for Lots 2 and 3, and will be established using a single-stage Open Procedure in line with the Procurement Act 2023, with scheduled reopenings during the term.
