GB-London: Implementing and Testing the Community Coordinated Front Door (ASC)

NOTE: This notice was updated on 03 October 2024 for the following reason: The deadline for tender submissions has been extended to Tuesday, October 8th at 12:00 pm.(The effectiveness of the front door to Adult Social Care (ASC) impacts both the numbers of people who are potentially accessing the adult social care system, inappropriately and prematurely. The effectiveness of the approach to manage the front door to ASC also impacts on those who do require the support of statutory services.

We know that many authorities are struggling to understand their ASC front door and the extent to which they are managing them in the most effective way. This piece of work is to support councils to work on protecting their front door to ASC and to develop the surrounding offer to address residents' needs. This will use the Community Coordinated ASC Front Door model so will be a valuable way of testing its utility and usability.)

Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
