Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Lewisham has completed the procurement process for the provision of Older Adults Day Service at the Calabash Centre. This tender, categorised under community, social, and personal services, was conducted through a direct procurement method below the threshold, without competition. The procurement is part of a light-touch regime suitable for SMEs and VCSEs. Key dates include the award publication on 1st May 2025 and a contract period set from 1st July 2025 to 30th June 2026, with services being delivered across the UK.

This tender offers growth opportunities for businesses specialising in community and social services, particularly those providing support for older adults. As the procurement process was executed below the competitive threshold, it indicates potential for agile and local businesses, especially SMEs and VCSEs, to engage with public authorities in similar future contracts. Such businesses should consider strategic engagement with sub-central government entities, like the London Borough of Lewisham, to expand their service portfolios and secure public service contracts.
