Decision taken to direct award a 3-year contract through G-cloud-13 for a cost of care calculator. The contract value is £88k for the full 3 year term (ex VAT).
Requirements identified by the service (HAS Service Development) for a cost modelling tool which calculates the fair cost of care for placements in care provider settings. The online system will give a baseline for care costs and bring transparency around the costs of care.
No change (do nothing) – continue to use the current in-house manual care home value for money tool and ADASS Supported Living Costing Tool.
