Summary of the contracting process

Halton Borough Council procured domiciliary care services through Lot 5 of its Single Purchase Framework. The requirement was for spot-purchase call-off care, providing health and social work services to people in their own homes. Delivery covered the North West of England. The buying organisation was Halton Borough Council, based in Widnes. The procurement was classified under CPV 85000000, covering health and social work services. This is a service opportunity for domiciliary care providers able to deliver care in the community and support people in their homes under individual call-off arrangements. The framework route indicates that the requirement formed part of an established purchasing arrangement rather than a standalone open tender for the underlying service.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 29 March 2026 at 5pm. The contract was awarded to Kingdom Health Limited on 30 March 2026 for £91,863.83, and runs from 30 March 2026 to 21 June 2026. The award covered the Lot 5 spot-purchase requirement for domiciliary care services. Halton Borough Council identified the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active, with Kingdom Health Limited as the selected supplier. The published procurement value and awarded value are both £91,863.83.

This award is relevant to domiciliary care providers, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, with the operational capacity to provide care to people in their own homes across the North West. A credible competitor for similar requirements would need to organise reliable community-based delivery, respond to individual spot-purchase call-offs and maintain sufficient staffing and management capacity across the service area. Experience of delivering health or social care services in a local-authority setting would be commercially relevant, as would the ability to work within framework call-off arrangements and manage short, defined service periods. The award demonstrates demand from Halton Borough Council for externally provided home-care services through its framework purchasing route.
