Summary of the contracting process

Darlington Borough Council has completed the procurement process for providing residential care services for working-aged adults aged 18 to 64. The tender, classified under the health and social work services industry category, covers the period from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2029 and is located in the UKC13 region. This procurement process was executed using a limited procurement method without prior publication, as it was deemed necessary by the Council due to the potential negative impact on service users if they were moved. The contract was awarded on 19th February 2025, with multiple suppliers including Salutem Shared Services Limited (Ashleigh House), Saint John of God Hospitaller Services, Sharon Keenan (The Avenue), Potensial Limited (Middleton Lodge), and Cygnet (OE) Limited (Redlands and Hollyhurst).

This procurement offers significant opportunities for businesses in the health and social care sector, particularly those with experience in providing residential care services for adults with varying needs. Given the nature of the service and the Council's rationale for directly awarding the contracts, businesses that can ensure continuity of care and have a track record of stability and high-quality service provision are well-suited to compete in this space. The substantial contract values, ranging from £600,000 to £2,400,000, present an attractive prospect for large-scale providers looking to establish or expand their footprint in the Darlington region.
