The maximum total value of the contract for the initial terms and the extensions of all three lots is £4.337m but no guarantee is given as to the actual value of the contract. There are 3 Lots. Lot 1 Young Carers and Parent Carer Support (this will be for the provision of the functions set out in paragraph for Carers aged 18 and below, Parent Carers for children with disabilities, Transition Carer Assessments, family working with multi-generational carer family units); Lot 2 Adult Carers (this will be for the provision of the functions set out above for all Carers aged 18 plus or to work with the provider of Lot 1 in supporting the needs of any Adult Carers they are working with); and Lot 3 Digital Carer support (this is for the delivery of identification and self-help support including access to an online Carers Assessment being developed separate to this contract by the Council. The contracts for Lots 1 and 2 are anticipated to commence on 1 October 2025 and will continue for a period of 2 years until 31st September 2027, unless terminated in accordance with the Conditions of Contract. The contract for Lot 3 is anticipated to commence on 1 October 2025 and will continue for 1 year until 31st September 2026, unless terminated in accordance with the Conditions of Contract. There will be three contracts issued for Lots 1, 2 and 3. (The contract terms and conditions for Lots 1 and 2 are the same).
