Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process was conducted by Milton Keynes Council for providing social work and related services under the title "65+ years." This procurement falls under the industry category of services, specifically classified as social work and related services with CPV code 85300000. The procurement was carried out through an open procedure facilitated under legal basis CELEX 32014L0024 and covered by the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA). The key deadline for this process was the contract signing date of 22 January 2025. Located in the region UKG13, the main lot for this tender was ultimately cancelled, although the award was still issued to Chiltern Healthcare. The awarded contract has a total value of £2,825.96.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in social services, particularly those with expertise in elderly care. With criteria heavily weighting on features and qualitative attributes, businesses with a strong portfolio in delivering high-quality social care services would be well-positioned to compete for such contracts. The procurement process that led to the awarding of this contract demonstrates an open procurement method, allowing fair competition among multiple bidders. Given the engagement of a regional authority such as Milton Keynes Council, other small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the region can leverage this opportunity to expand their services, build partnerships, and enhance their visibility within the public sector market.
