Scope of works
Leicester City Council (the Council) undertook a procurement process to find a suitably qualified and experienced provider for the Occupational Therapy Trusted Assessor Learning and Development Service for residents of Leicester. The procurement of this service has now concluded and the contract awarded. Services procured were as detailed in the tender documentation. The proposed Contract will be for an initial period of 6 Months to commence on 24th August 2026 to 23rd February 2027 with no option to extend. The awarded Provider will develop and deliver face to face Trusted Assessor training to staff working across the Adult Social Care and Safeguarding Division. The training will support staff who are not part of the Occupational Therapy Service to identify when equipment or minor adaptations can help someone to live safely and well in their own home, without requiring specialist Occupational Therapist skills. The training will focus on understanding the built environment of people’s homes in Leicester in relation to adaptations and provision of equipment, including how to arrange a prescribed list of equipment and small modifications via a contractor. Through the Service, the Provider will deliver 11 full days of face-to-face training for approximately 150 to 155 staff, using local venues arranged by the Council. The provider will develop training resources, ensure trainers are appropriately qualified and understand local need, and ensure the training is culturally appropriate and reflects the diverse communities in Leicester. The proposed Contract will commence on 24th August 2026 and expire on 23rd February 2027. The contract period will be for six months. There is no option to extend. The estimated contract value is £35,000 plus VAT (£42,000). Further details in respect of this tender opportunity are contained within the Invitation to Tender documentation.
