Health and social work services

Wiltshire Council is seeking to establish a Good Lives Alliance from which the Council and NHS Wiltshire can purchase Specialist Services for people with a learning disability or a mental health illness; Supported Living and Residential and Nursing Care.|| The good lives alliance will be created by establishing a Pseudo Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to procure these services which fall within the light-touch regime (LTR — PCR 2015 Regulations 74-77). The Pseudo DPS will in many respects look and feel like a DPS set up under PCR 2015 Regulation 34, but the flexibility of the LTR will apply. None of the formal procedural rules have any direct application including the requirements of Regulation 34. Wiltshire Council makes this distinction to avoid implying that it will follow, or be bound by, the full procurement regime under PCR 2015 for this procurement.
