Abstract

Kirklees Council (the contracting authority) posted a PIN, used as a call for competition, in the Official Journal of the European Union seeking expressions of interest from economic operators with the relevant experience and ability to work with us, at risk, to co-design, develop and deliver the Kirklees Intervention and Support Service (‘KISS’) (the ‘Service’).

The service has been developed through a social impact bond (‘SIB’) via collaboration with an investment partner, Bridges Fund Management. Bridges Fund Management worked with KMC to co-design and develop the intervention and support service, to improve outcomes and life chances for vulnerable people which will then reduce the likelihood of their future need to access costly crisis interventions.

Bridges Fund Management have set up Kirklees Better Outcomes Partnership (KBOP) as a social enterprise to act as an ‘economic operator’ responsible for commissioning specialist service providers to deliver the Kirklees Intervention and Support Service (KISS). KBOP will be the prime contractor with the council and will sub-contract with frontline delivery providers.

The contract was awarded by a process akin to the competitive procedure with negotiation. The total estimated outcome payments of the contract are up to a maximum of 22 300 000 GBP over the life of the contract. This project is being co-funded by the Life Chances Fund and amounts include their top up contribution. There will be a requirement that the terms and conditions of the Life Chances Fund Award are met.

This is a payment for outcomes contract, and the rate card has been developed and agreed in partnership between the Council and Bridges Fund Management.

The duration of the contract will be up to 60 months, with all outcome payments being drawn down by 30.9.2024. The contract will commence 2.9.2019 with an operational period end date of 31.3.2024, and a contract expiry date of 3 months after the operational period on 30.6.2019. There is an option to extend the operational period for a further period of 6 months.

The strategic and operational drivers for developing the service include:

— improving preventative services and outcomes for some of our most vulnerable and chaotic residents, to move towards more hopeful, healthy, socially connected and economically active lives,

— reducing the use of costly crisis intervention services across the public sector (in housing, social care, criminal justice, welfare and health), releasing resources to deliver cost effective preventative services,

— to drive innovation and test new ways of commissioning services by collaborating with investment and third sector partners – benefitting from our collective expertise, challenge and shared resources – to investigate and evidence using a SIB approach, and

— to provide a more holistic, inclusive service that removes inefficiencies, duplications, artificial competition and gaps in addressing need in the legacy housing support that KISS will replace is described below.

The programme will be expected to provide support for up to 6 300 service users over the duration of the contract, at a rate of approximately 1 260 per annum.

II.1.4) Short description

The contracting authority has secured funding from the Government’s Life Chances Fund. The 80 000 000 GBP Life Chances Fund was launched in July 2016 with the objective of tackling entrenched social issues and helping those who face the most significant barriers to leading happy and productive lives. The fund is structured as a social impact bond (‘SIB’) and channels external investment into interventions to tackle social issues. Investors are then repaid by local authorities on the basis of specified social outcomes being achieved.

As such, the contracting authority used a PIN as a call for competition to seek expressions of interest from economic operators, with the relevant experience and ability, to work with us, at risk, to co-design, develop and deliver the Kirklees Intervention and Support Service (‘KISS’) (the ‘Service’), to develop through a SIB via collaboration with an investment partner.

N/A

UK

VI.4.3) Review procedure

Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures:

In accordance with Regulation 86 (Notices of decisions to award a contract or conclude a framework agreement), Regulation 87 (Standstill periods) and Chapter 6 (Applications to Court) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102), the contracting authority will incorporate a minimum ten (10) calendar days standstill period at the point that information on the conclusion of the contract is communicated to economic operators. This period allows any unsuccessful economic operator(s) to seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before the award of the contract. Such additional information should be requested from the address at Section I.1) above. If an appeal regarding the award of the contract has not been successfully resolved, then the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland). Any such action must be started within thirty (30) days beginning with the date when the aggrieved party first knew or sought to have grounds for starting the proceedings had arisen. The Court may extend the time limited for starting proceedings where the Court considers that there is a good reason for doing so, but not so as to permit proceedings to be started more than three (3) months after that date. Where the contract has not been awarded, the Court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the contracting authority to amend any document and may award damages. If however the contract has been awarded, the Court may only award damages, or (where the contract award procedures have not been followed correctly) declare the contract to be ineffective.
