Summary of the contracting process

Somerset Council has awarded a contract for Intermediate Care services under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 via a direct award process. The contract, valued at £1,000,000, has been awarded to Lifeline Homecare Ltd and will run from 1st September 2024 to 31st August 2025. The services will be provided in the UKK23 region, covering health and social work services. The procurement method was limited, specifically tailored for the Provider Selection Regime, and did not involve prior publication of a call for competition.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in health and social care to expand their service offerings and establish long-term relationships with public sector clients. It is particularly suitable for providers who specialise in short-term aftercare and have experience working within healthcare settings to support hospital discharge and recovery processes. SMEs in the health and social work sector stand to benefit significantly from engaging with this procurement opportunity, given the direct award mechanism and the emphasis on maintaining continuity and quality of care.
