Summary of the contracting process

Powys County Council commissioned health and social care services for accommodation and support that enables people to live a good life, through supported living and supported housing. The framework covers services across Powys, with delivery in the county. It is a service procurement covering community, social and personal care provision, including health and social work services (CPV 85000000 and 98000000). The requirement is intended for contractors providing accommodation alongside person-centred support, rather than for standalone property, construction or general facilities management. It is a single, county-wide requirement under a framework arrangement, allowing the Council to place future service requirements with appointed providers.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an open procedure as a closed framework with competition reopened where required, or without reopening competition. There was one lot. The award date was 5 August 2026, with 17 appointed suppliers: Accomplish Group, Adferiad Recovery, Care and Grace, Care Managers, Cartrefi Cymru Co-operative, Compass Community Care, Gable Healthcare Services, mirus-wales, People Support, Perthyn, Phillips 1924 Homecare Services, Principle Care Agency, Shaw Healthcare Group, Treherne Care Group, Voyage, Walsingham Support and Next Step Nursing. The award value is £90,143,296.45 including tax. The award contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2031, with an option to extend to 30 September 2034. Quality carried 90% and price 10%.

This outcome shows sustained Council demand for supported living and supported housing across Powys, delivered by organisations able to combine accommodation with care and support. A credible future competitor would need relevant experience, competent staff and the economic and technical capacity to operate these services safely and consistently across the county. The evaluation’s strong emphasis on technical quality means evidence of person-centred practice, service quality, safeguarding, workforce capability and robust operating arrangements would be important, alongside a competitive price. The appointed field included large providers, SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises, showing that the requirement can suit different organisational models. Eight SMEs and five VCSEs reached the final bidding stage, indicating a competitive market with established specialist providers.
