Summary of the contracting process

Caerphilly County Borough Council, in collaboration with Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council, has completed the award stage of a public procurement process titled "Support at Home." This procurement involves the delivery of health and social work services specifically domiciliary care and respite at home for adults and children, categorised under the CPV code 85000000. The process encompasses several lots, each targeting different demographics such as older people, individuals with dementia, and those with mental health problems. Key contracts within the framework were signed on 12 June 2025, and the framework is set to operate within UKL16. The council has employed an open procurement method to establish a flexible framework, allowing providers to tender for one or more lots, with the arrangement set for a maximum of 52 months starting from 23 June 2025.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social care services to expand their operations and clientele. Enterprises capable of providing domiciliary care and respite services are well-placed to compete, especially if they possess the infrastructure to support children, older adults, and individuals with specific impairments or health conditions. With chances to tender across multiple lots, both existing providers and new entrants can integrate into the framework, potentially enhancing community service offerings within Caerphilly and Blaenau Gwent. Additionally, firms equipped with electronic call monitoring systems will align well with tender requirements, which place importance on competitive pricing and high-quality service provision. The opportunity is also open to consortia, encouraging collaborative approaches to meet the diverse needs of service users within the framework.
