The document provides an overview of the current state of adult social care in the UK and a proposed future operating model to transform the sector. Currently, local authorities directly purchase social care services, limiting choice and innovation. The proposed model would create a free market by removing barriers to entry, increasing competition and giving citizens more control over their care. This is expected to provide supply chain leverage, decrease prices, and enhance services while giving citizens more choice.
3. The Government Vision
The vision encourages decisions regarding care and support to be delivered in a partnership locally between
individuals, communities, the voluntary sector, the NHS and councils – including wider support services.
The new agenda for adult social care is based on shifting power from the state to the citizen, by focusing on the
Governments commitments to:
•Breaking down barriers between health and social care funding to incentivise preventative action
•Extending greater rollout of personal budgets to give people and their carers more control and purchasing
power
•Using direct payments to carers and better community-based provision to improve access to respite care
This is the Governments first step towards the White Paper which should be published next year outlining their
longer term plans in regards to funding and deliver of care and support.
Governments Vision for Adult Social Care is about making services more Personalised, more
Preventative and more Focused on delivering the best outcomes for those who use them

An opportunity exists to transform the service offering to create a free market approach that
supports this
5. Adult Social Care Demographics
The Adult Social Care Market
• The Adult Social Care (residential care, domiciliary care and home care) sector represents 36% of the overall Social Care
Sector
• With nearly 1.5m workforce (employed via local authorities) it accounts for approximately 5% of England’s workforce and
38,000 employers, however the actual work force is far greater than this when the whole supply chain is considered
• The demand for social care will increase dramatically in the next twenty years in line with current population
forecasts.
• Even prior to the recession, the government was envisaging a £6bn funding gap for social care by 2026.
Councils are experiencing an increasing service demand and costs and falling income. Modelling work
suggests that the current social care system would need real-term funding increases of a minimum of 3.6%
per year to cover the increase of service demand
• An increase in the number of people who use social care services starting to employ their
own support staff is expected. The emerging role is expected to be that of the personal
assistant as well as 3rd
sector social enterprises but a growth is also expected to include:
support brokers, assessment and enablement officers, co-ordination & brokerage officers.
• 9.5 million of the population are currently aged 64+ there is projected to be a
25% increase over the next decade with Life Expectancy also increasing at an
average 2.5 years per decade
6. Gross Current Expenditure Profile
• The charts below show the share of gross current expenditure by type of provision for adults by all client
types for 2007-08 and 2008-09.
• The percentage of expenditure on residential care has fallen slightly by one percentage point from 2007-08
while there has been a corresponding increase in the percentage of expenditure on day and domiciliary
provision.
• In 2008-09 the provision of residential provision accounted for 48 per cent of the gross current expenditure
on adults. The provision of day and domiciliary care accounted for 40 per cent of the current expenditure.
The remaining 12 per cent of expenditure was on assessment and care management.
The Share of gross current expenditure for adults by all client types shows a transition towards
domiciliary care:
2007/8 2008/9 2009/10
7. Total Market Sizing
Gross Current Expenditure on Adult Social Services 2007-08 v 2008-09.
• Local Authorities have reported an increase in Adult Social Service spend from £15.3 billion in 2007-08 to £16.1
billion in 2008-09, this is approximately 5 per cent in cash terms and 3 per cent real terms. Over a longer term,
this represents a real term increase of 13 per cent since 2003-04 and 54 per cent over the 10 years from 1998-
99.
• This sector has been growing at an average rate of around 6.1% a year in current value terms between 2004 and
2008. After allowing for inflation as measured by the gross domestic product (GDP) deflator, this represented
an average annual rate of increase over the period of around 3.5% at constant 2008/2009 prices
• The total expenditure is anticipated to be £16.7m in 2009/10
8. Personal Social Services Expenditure
• The Table shows current expenditure by client group and service type for 2008-09.
• Between 2007-08 and 2008-09, gross current expenditure on day and domiciliary care increased by 5 per cent
in real terms overall.
• Gross expenditure on home care provision for older people amounted to just over £2 billion and accounted
for 62 per cent of all day and domiciliary care for older people.

9. The Current Operating Model
Current Operating Model
• A traditional approach adopted by many authorities, which involves local
authorities purchasing adult social care services on behalf of the service
user and therefore the primary contractual relationship is held between the
authority and service provider
• Contracts are usually a mix of block purchasing and spot buying
• The constraints of this model include:
• Inflexibility to service users and limitation of choice
• Does not engender innovation
• Lacks responsiveness to market changes
• Lack of commercial challenge
• Lack of competition
Parallels regarding the procurement of Adult Social Care can be drawn with the utilities
market pre and post regulation. Prior to deregulation of the Utilities market was devoid in
competition and customers have no scope to change suppliers however since deregulation
the number of electricity suppliers has virtually doubled and customers have seen electricity
prices fall in the region of 8% and 17%
11. The Opportunity
The overall opportunity for change is directly linked with the drive towards increasing the level of supported living
which will have an impact on the level of domiciliary care services. The opportunity can be clearly built in a modular
way which is fully based on the adoption of a “free market” approach
12. The Opportunity

Domiciliary care supply chain
leverage via FOM
•Market size of £7bn per annum
•Free market supply chain leverage =
2% to 8%
Total opportunity = £140m to £560m
PA Market Creation and capacity
increase
•Estimated market size of £1.4bn
•Market creation and management =
5% to 15%
Total opportunity = £70m to £210m
There is considerable opportunity for the UK Adult social
care sector to offset the expenditure gap. Phase 1 adopts a
free market approach and can be commenced with minimal
start up costs.
14. Future Operating Model
• In response to the Governments vision to provide choice to service users and empower them to choose
the type of care that they want, there is a requirement to develop a more flexible and innovative supply
chain
• Create a Free market that removes barriers to entry therefore creating
competition, ability to leverage supply chain, decrease price, enhance service
offering and drive innovation, and ultimately providing more choice to the
end user
• Review the overall service provision under Domiciliary Care to drive
the increase use of Personal Assistants for general and domestic care
whilst focusing Domiciliary Carers on Personal Care
• Provides supply chain leverage for domiciliary care provision (phase 1)
and on going social care expenditure (phase 2)
• Is underpinned by a modular an end to end focused ASC
