Transitional Arrangements 24

Transitions to 2019 Framework Transitions to 2019 Framework The intention is that both existing and new business will be paid at the rates agreed in the2019 Framework from the date the new Framework Agreement commences. The most effective way to achieve this is still being considered: The possibilities being explored are: Varying the 2015 Framework to allow prices to be set at the same rates agreed on the 2019 Framework Terminating each individual call off contract under the 2015 Framework and re-awarding it under the 2019 Framework All new business will be awarded under the 2019 Framework from the date of contract commencement. Final decisions are not yet taken in relation to formalising the transition arrangements for existing business.

Pricing Strategy 26

What did Providers say on pricing in the 2019 What did Providers say on pricing in the 2019 Framework? Framework? 52% Providers favoured being able to submit prices without GCC involvement 19% thought that GCC should set minimum and maximum prices 10% thought GCC should set a minimum price but no maximum 10% thought GCC should set a fixed price 10% did not have a view

Proposed pricing strategy for the 2019 Proposed pricing strategy for the 2019 Framework: Framework: Bidders will submit their own rates GCC will set a minimum price to ensure a sustainable rate Prices will be fixed for 12 months Inflationary uplifts will be considered annually Individual budgets (IB) will not be increased unless the service users needs have changed. Where changes in rates mean the required support can not be adjusted to be provided within the existing IB, a Service User review will be required

Awards of business under the 2019 Framework 29

Awards of business via the 2015 Social Work Awards of business via the 2015 Social Work Framework Framework 3 Call Offs SU Selected Direct Award (option 2) Council Selected Direct Award (option 3) Mini Comp (option 3)

Provider Feedback: Provider Feedback: Overall, the call off process was well understood by Providers but opinion was more divided about whether the processes were clear, efficient and effective at allocating business: Survey: About 50% Providers agreed that the PER contained the right type and amount of client information. Focus Groups: Reaction to the PER was mixed with Providers being fairly equally divided between those who thought it fit for purpose and those who thought it provided too much info.

Provider Feedback: Provider Feedback: When asked whether the direct award process was clear, efficient and successful at allocating business: 33% of Providers did not express a view 24% of Providers neither agreed nor disagreed. 38% agreed the process was clear compared to 5% who disagreed 10% though it efficient compared to 34% who disagreed 29% thought it successful at allocating business compared to 14% who did not.

Conclusion: Conclusion: Fieldwork staff reported that the call off process needs to be less complex, quicker, involve the transfer of less information, be less labour intensive and more streamlined. Providers also expressed concerns about sustainability and resilience confirming that there is less capacity in the workforce than in previous years with the result that Provider s are less able to: 1. accept some business such as half hour calls 2. accept packages in areas where they have little or no other work 3. maintain commitment to awards processes which require significant resources and which only sometimes result in generating new business

Option 3 Direct Award: Proposed Changes: Option 3 Direct Award: Proposed Changes: Provider Enquiry Report will be replaced with a more streamlined form containing anonymised basic service user/service requirement information. Option 3 Direct Award will be advertised securely on a city-wide basis, accessible simultaneously to the top 20 ranked providers from the relevant category and sub group Care Mangers will select from the top 5 ranked providers using meets requirements and professional judgement. Selected provider will link with Care Manager and Service User to produce a detailed support plan.

Option 2 Option 2 Service User Direct Award Service User Direct Award No significant change proposed to the existing process whereby service users, their Guardian or legal proxies are given the right to choose provider/s from the relevant categories on the framework. The main change in this area is: GCC will make available modified versions of the option 3 processes to service users/proxies if they feel this is the best way to support their choice of Provider under option 2. GCC will remove the restriction on service users only getting 2 chances to select their own provider before the process defaults to Council selection however GCC will keep the option for service users to default to option 3 if they decide this is the best course of action

Option 3: Mini Option 3: Mini- -Competition Competition The experience of running mini-competition leads to the conclusion that they can add value in certain circumstances but that this needs to be weighed against the resources required to run them and the longer timeframes necessary to conclude them. Change proposed: Retain mini-competition for high cost option 3 awards. Work to the principle of using discretion to carry out mini competitions on the basis of complexity rather than pre-determined financial thresholds. Mini-completion would be run when it is considered likely to result in a better outcome for service users.
