Summary of the contracting process

Darlington Borough Council has completed a procurement process for a homecare service placement under a selective tendering method, using a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, classified under health and social work services, was awarded to Springfield Home Care Services Limited. The procurement process concluded with the award announced on 9th September 2025, and the service contract spans from 28th May 2025 to 27th May 2029. The delivery location for the service is in Darlington, England (postal code DL1 5QT), and the contract holds a value of £35,239.36. The nature of the procurement allows smaller businesses, including SMEs and VCSOs, to participate, although the successful supplier is a large-scale organisation.

This procurement tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the health and social work sectors who have or can develop capabilities to meet homecare needs effectively. Businesses that specialise in providing personalised care services, including those facilitating elderly and disability care, would find this type of contract beneficial for expanding their market presence and portfolio. The framework agreement and selective procurement method used in this process suggest that suppliers with proven expertise and capability stand a better chance in such competitive tenders. Engaging in public sector contracts like this one can pave the way for long-term stability and growth for businesses in the service industry.
