PROVISION OF HOME BASED BREAKS SERVICES FOR CARERS: APPROVAL TO AWARD A CONTRACT (PART 2 ANNEX)

Meeting: 18/12/2012 - Cabinet (Item 196)

PROVISION OF HOME BASED BREAKS SERVICES FOR CARERS APPROVAL TO AWARD A CONTRACT (PART 2 ANNEX)

Additional documents:

Decision:

That a fixed price contract be awarded to Surrey Crossroads at a value, as set out in the submitted report for two years (with the possibility to extend for further one year with a maximum of two years) for the provision of Home Based Breaks Service for Carers to commence on 6 February 2013.

 

Reasons for Decisions

 

By awarding the contract to Surrey Crossroads, we will continue to receive a high quality of service with a low rate.  Also, Surrey Crossroads are a Surrey based voluntary sector supplier and have six offices covering all parts of Surrey.

 

In addition, the contract will enable the Council to make further payments to Surrey Crossroads on the receipt of funding from Clinical Commissioning Groups, which will consequently increase the number of hours provided as a break to carers.
