What the buyer wants
Sheffield City Council (SCC) is implementing an incentive based referral programme to support the recruitment of Shared Lives Carers through Independent Fostering Agencies (IFAs). The incentive approach aims to widen the potential pool of applicants. The aim of this commission is to: • Increase the number of suitable applicants referred into the Shared Lives recruitment pathway. • Improve the quality of Shared Lives applications. • Support the Shared Lives service to meet growing demand for community-based care by recruiting additional Shared Lives households. • Provide a consistent, high quality, information and triage process before referral. These aims align with SCC’s strategic priority of promoting independence, community connection, and cost-effective adult social care.
How Tenderoo reads it
This is a framework agreement: a place on it puts you on the buyer's approved list, which they call work off from over the term. It is not a single job, and a small firm can hold a place alongside national suppliers.
