It does not constitute a call for competition and create any obligation on the Authority to proceed with a procurement exercise, or enter into any commercial arrangement. Please note the procurement route and anticipated publication date for this opportunity are yet to be determined. These elements will be confirmed following completion of the market engagement process and development of the Authority’s commercial strategy. Any future procurement will be subject to separate formal notice and the publication of full procurement documentation via the Find a Tender Service (FTS). BlueLight Commercial Limited (BLC) are conducting Preliminary Market Engagement to gain a better understanding of the market, supplier appetite, capacity, and capability, as well as perceived risks and opportunities.

The focus of this solution will be improving Victim & Citizen Engagement, building trust and confidence, reducing demand within control rooms, and reducing the costs of serving the public by using innovative software to keep both victims and citizens more engaged. The aim is to ensure all forces have access to the most effective, reliable, and innovative solutions available in the market. This Solution needs to facilitate the force contact engagement from first contact with a police force to final closure of the contact, and via integration with police systems, e.g. Command and Control, Records Management Systems providing contact and updates throughout the journey without the need to call the force contact centre. It seeks to further drive standardisation and consistency, whilst helping forces to develop capability and invest in technology which will not only improve the service at first point of contact but will improve the overall contact experience. This Solution must facilitate Victim & Citizen engagement to reduce failure demand whilst proactively engaging to ensure high levels of customer (internal and external) trust and confidence. The delivery of the desired solution may be considered to follow the same customer service path as an online application or ordering process. For example, acknowledgement of the initial contact, time appropriate follow up contacts at defined points within the communication journey, and a closure contact at the end of the process. All communication will be auditable and align with the Victims code as appropriate. We are looking for solutions that can meet individual force needs and achieve the following: *Improve experience of members of the public accessing the policing service *Provide the public with consistent updates in a timely manner, *Improve public trust, confidence, and satisfaction, *Reduce Contact Management demand, *Improve force's overall Contact Management performance.

Cardiff Council Adult Services are re commissioning their Care Home provision for Older People and Mental Health Older Persons in Cardiff. The intention is to commission these services via a new Light Touch Services Framework, underpinned by a number of key principles. 1. It is proposed that the framework is underpinned by a set of principles as set out below: • A “Framework First” approach will be taken, whereby all placements are expected to be made through the approved framework, with off-framework placements only permitted in clearly defined exceptional circumstances. This will ensure a consistent approach to decision-making, while also supporting better control of costs, as rates will have been set through the framework arrangement. • Provider Commitment – providers will be required to give the council first refusal on their vacant care home placements. • Quality as Standard - Quality will be a key focus of the framework. Only providers meeting established quality standards will be admitted to the framework, with ongoing performance monitored through existing governance processes. • A Fixed and Transparent Pricing Structure - the proposed framework will operate on the basis of set fee levels, with all providers required to accept the Council’s pricing structure as a condition of entry. The rationale for this approach is to address the current variation and unpredictability in placement costs, where prices are often driven by individual bidding behaviour and urgent need. By establishing clear, standardised rates for each care category the new model will introduce transparency and consistency, ensuring that pricing better reflects actual care requirements rather than market pressure or negotiation dynamics. • Maximising Choice and Continuity -a key principle of the framework is to maximise choice for service users, allowing them to choose from all the placements available within the framework that would meet their needs. Support will be provided to service users to assist them and their families in making this choice. The framework will also allow for continuity, allowing individuals to remain with existing providers when a placement becomes permanent or where needs change, as long as those needs can still be met by the existing provider. • A City Wide Model - it is proposed that the framework adopts a city-wide model, rather than a locality model as the number of care homes is limited. Operating a city-wide model will maximise service user choice and help to ensure placement availability, reducing risks associated with limited local capacity. • Supporting Providers and Market Sustainability -a further key principle is that the framework arrangement will support providers, by introducing a more personalised approach to placements and working in partnership with providers to encouraging growth and development in the areas where demand is likely to continue to increase. 2. It is also proposed that the framework is structured around four lots based on care categories. These will be General Residential, Dementia Residential, General Nursing and Dementia Nursing within each care category there will be 4 sub categories. i) Permanent ii) Temporary iii) Emergency iv) Respite (planned and unplanned).
