Summary of the contracting process

Anchor Hanover Group is planning a procurement process for the provision of temporary agency staff across approximately 121 care homes located throughout various regions of the United Kingdom, including East Midlands, East of England, London, North East, North West, South East, South West, West Midlands, and Yorkshire and the Humber. The procurement, titled "Temporary Agency Staff (Care Homes) - C8840," falls under the Health and Social Work Services industry category (CPV: 85000000). This process is currently in the planning stage, with key activities scheduled to commence on 3rd February 2025. The contract will have an initial duration of three years, with an option to extend for up to an additional two years. The procurement method will be a restricted procedure, involving the simultaneous submission of Supplier Questionnaires (SQ) and Invitation to Tender (ITT) documents.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses, especially those classified as SMEs, to engage in supplying temporary healthcare staff, including Healthcare Assistants, Team Leaders, Housekeepers, and Catering roles. Companies that operate as Neutral Vendors will be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, as the tender does not accommodate Master Vendors or local agencies. With an estimated contract value ranging between GBP 25 million to GBP 50 million, successful participation could significantly bolster business growth and market presence in the health and social care sector. Interested companies are advised to register on Anchor's e-sourcing platform ahead of the tender's go-live date for a seamless participation process.
