This service contributes to the corporate outcome ‘People in Essex can live independently and exercise control over their lives’. Through this process we are commissioning the following outcomes: — Individuals have a care and support plan in place, operating effectively; — Individuals are making payments for solutions identified in care and support plans in a timely, efficient and person-centred way; — Individuals have successfully recruited and employed personal assistants and other staff and are effectively managing them; The contract will support the Councils strategy for increasing numbers of people with Personal Budgets and the continued uptake of Direct Payments. This contract will be split into 3 distinct ‘Lots’, as follows; — Lot 1 — Support Planning and brokerage; — Lot 2 — Payroll and Payment Accounts; — Lot 3 — Personal Assistant (PA) Employment, Training and maintenance of a PA Register. Tenderers are able to bid for 1, 2 or 3 lots, as appropriate. This service will support both Adults and Children and their families, being accessible to all Service Users of all ages and specialisms, who utilise a Personal Budget. It is envisaged that during the contract term, integrated Health and Social Care Personal budgets will be introduced with increasing numbers over time. As yet, timelines for introduction are unconfirmed, however, this contract will also be open to the 5 CCG's operating within Essex. This contract will be awarded to multiple providers, who will be required to deliver and fully support both general and more specialist needs, promoting user-led approaches and peer support. This will maximise choice for our Service users, as required by the Care Act 2014. In addition, it is Essex County Council's expectation that successful providers will work with the extended market to further ensure that all Service User needs are met.
