    Brief

    Hertfordshire County Council is seeking feedback from care providers and potential investors on its plans to develop additional nursing home capacity across the county. This is a pre-market engagement (PME) exercise, not a formal procurement process. The Council is exploring a Social Investment Model where external investors would fund and build 6-8 new nursing homes, with the Council leasing the completed buildings and sub-leasing them to registered care providers. The homes would deliver high-quality nursing and dementia care with beds allocated for local authority use at standard fee rates. The Council wants to understand how to: expand nursing care bed capacity; improve long-term sustainability of care providers and the wider market; and ensure residents have access to modern, affordable, high-quality accommodation close to home. All feedback will be used to shape the Council's requirements and decision-making. Participation in this PME does not advantage or disadvantage any supplier in any future procurement process.
