Framework details

The maximum term of the Open Framework will be 8 years. The Framework will be re-opened: • once within Year 3 of Framework 1, and • once within Year 6 of Framework 2, The Council reserves the right to re-open the Framework at additional points prior to, after, or in addition to the scheduled re-openings stated above, where it considers it necessary to do so. Any Call Off-Contracts awarded under a framework may continue beyond the end of that framework in accordance with the terms of the relevant Call Off Contract. Where a Call-Off procurement process has commenced before the expiry of a framework, the Council may continue that process and award the resulting Call-Off Contract as though the framework had not expired. Suppliers appointed to the initial framework will not be required to resubmit or re-tender in order to participate in successor frameworks established through the Authority’s planned re-opening exercises. Subject to the provisions set out above, suppliers awarded a place on the Framework will automatically be carried over into any successor framework awarded under this open framework arrangement. The Council reserves the right to exclude any supplier from a successor framework where these conditions are not met. For the avoidance of doubt, automatic admission to successor frameworks applies only to suppliers who maintain their place on the Framework without interruption. Any supplier that voluntarily withdraws from, or otherwise ceases to be appointed to, the Framework during its term will not be automatically admitted to a successor framework and will be required to submit a new application or tender during a future re-opening opportunity in order to rejoin the Framework. Bidders who are unsuccessful in obtaining a place on the Framework during any re-opening exercise may submit a new application and be reconsidered when the Framework is subsequently re-opened. An unsuccessful application at one re-opening exercise will not prevent a bidder from applying at future re-opening exercises. Appointments under this framework will be made in via the Call Off/Booking Platform hosted on Adam Housing Platform (https://www.theaccessgroup.com/en-gb/health-social-care/software/commissioning-software/access-adam-providers-site/customers/milton-keynes-city-council/). Following admission to the framework, Providers will need to register on the Adam Housing Platform, complete the Authority’s accreditation, and create a property profile for each unit they wish to make available, stating the unit type and the nightly rate for that property. The Authority will review each property listing and may confirm or reject it on the basis of price, suitability, compliance and compatibility with the Authority’s requirements. Admission to the Framework does not entitle a Provider to list any particular property, nor oblige the Authority to accept any property or rate. The Council will source accommodation by booking individual placements (call-offs) through the Platform as and when a household need arises, taking account of suitability, availability, price and the needs of the Service User. The Authority gives no commitment, guarantee or assurance as to volume, spend or occupancy. The full framework overview and operational guide is included within the tender documents on the Councils e-tendering portal in-tend.
