Cornwall Council and NHS Kernow have introduced a joint dynamic purchasing system for home care and supportive lifestyles for adult services including specialist healthcare. For full details of the tender and the requirements, please refer to the tender documentation within the Due North tender. How we will use your data - the dynamic purchasing system has been awarded to a company called adam and due to the Cornwall Council tendering process, specific data will need to be provided to them to set you up as a supplier on their system, known as SPROC.net. SPROC.net is a digital commissioning and contract management platform and further information regarding adam and the DPS can be found at www.usseadam.co.uk/home or http://demand.sproc.net
Cornwall Council will extract this information from company information that you submit through supplying the South West and we will pass this to adam to input onto SPROC.net to enable you to access the system.
