Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hackney is inviting suppliers to participate in the procurement process for a 'Supported Living & Residential Framework', with the aim to deliver a variety of adult social care services. The framework is structured into three lots: Supported Living, Residential (for working age and 65+), and Fixed Term Care Contracts. The procurement stage is currently at the tender phase, and businesses are encouraged to express interest before the deadline on 8th May 2026. This initiative falls under the 'Health and social work services' category applicable across several regions within the United Kingdom. The procurement method employed is a selective, competitive flexible procedure. The contract period is set to commence on 1st July 2026 and can be renewed annually. Please note, the Procurement Selection Questionnaire must be completed to qualify, and additional competition will follow for certain services, ensuring comprehensive opportunities throughout the framework’s term.

This framework opens avenues for SMEs and VCSEs to significantly expand their business in the adult social care sector, encompassed within a £3.4 billion allocation. It provides substantial potential for growth through diversified lots and annual openings, thus allowing providers to adjust services according to specific community needs. Businesses specialising in health and social work services will find the opportunities presented particularly attractive as the framework not only covers supported living and residential care but also offers fixed-term care contracts for varied demographic needs. Bidders must meet both economic and technical selection criteria, making it suitable for businesses ready to scale their operations while adhering to quality and pricing standards set within the sector. Participation can further be augmented through collaborations with North East London local authorities from Year 2 of the framework, broadening the scope and impact of services offered.
