London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham would like to invite Potential Providers to participate in the establishment of a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the provision of Extra Care Housing (ECH) services across three boroughs (The London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and Westminster City Council).  
The Services will provide accommodation based care and support to enable mostly (but not exclusively) older people to develop or maintain their independence, minimise the risk of social exclusion and improve their quality of life, thus preventing loss of home or tenancy and significant reduction in the use of more institutional forms of care.
The DPS will be established for an initial ten year period, with the option to extend for a further five year period.
Each Authority will commission in line with local needs. Potential Providers may apply for admission to one or more Lots.
Three Lots will be established; one Lot for each Authority’s local geographical area.  
Lot 1: London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham
Lot 2: The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea
Lot 3: Westminster City Council
