Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council, a public authority within sub-central government in the United Kingdom, is planning a procurement titled "Home Care Service Leicester." This service falls under the category of social work and related services and is located in Leicester. As of the latest update, the procurement process is in the planning stage, with a future notice date set for 12th April 2031. The contract period is intended to commence on 13th October 2032 and conclude on 12th October 2037, with an option for renewal extending to 2039. This procurement will be conducted under the light-touch regime of services procurement and is above the threshold, meaning it is subject to specific public procurement directives.

This planned tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specializing in home care services and social work. Companies experienced in providing in-home care and support services aimed at promoting independence and wellbeing would find this contract particularly beneficial. The involvement of joint funding by Leicester City Council and the Integrated Care Board (ICB) underscores the contract's importance, offering a stable and potentially lucrative avenue for growth. Businesses capable of delivering services that delay the need for more intensive residential or nursing care should consider competing for this opportunity to expand their portfolio in the public sector. Additionally, the extended contract period provides a substantial timeframe for service delivery and the possibility for contract renewal could further enhance business stability and continuity.
