Brent Homecare Framework

The homecare service provides support to Brent residents to maximise their independence by using a strength based approach giving the service user greater choice in who they receive care from. Appointing providers to a framework will supplement the patch based lead provider model that was implemented for Homecare in 2021. The supplemental homecare framework is set up to allow homecare packages to be awarded by calling off from the framework when lead providers on the main homecare contract have capacity issues or are unable to accept the homecare packages due to complexity. 20 providers would be awarded a place on the home care framework. The Invitation to Tender set out that the Council reserves the right to award to more than 20 providers based on need if the provider’s scores are within 0.5% score of the 20th ranked provider.
