Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (LBHF) recently concluded its procurement process for "Community Reablement & Home Care Services for Adults in Hammersmith & Fulham." Initially launched as an open procurement under the public authority's mandate, the process was designed to enhance community reablement and home care services. However, the procurement for these services was cancelled as of 15 June 2026, when the council recognized that the proposals did not meet their comprehensive requirements. The procurements covered services tailored for adults in the UKI33 region (Hammersmith & Fulham, London), under social work and rehabilitation service categories, with an indicative start date for contracts being 1 August 2026.

This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in adult social care and rehabilitation services designed to promote independence and minimise hospital admissions. Companies with expertise in delivering quality-focused, innovative, and responsive care solutions are ideal candidates for this opportunity, facilitated under a light-touch regulatory framework. The framework agreement, including a multi-lot approach with specialised roles, anticipates substantial participation, emphasizing flexibility and resilience in service delivery. Businesses registered with CQC within London or neighbouring boroughs are well-positioned to leverage this procurement to expand their footprint and service offerings within this strategic market. The revised tender, expected soon, will continue to reflect the need for high-quality services, potentially offering enhanced criteria and new opportunities for interested providers.

Following careful consideration, the Council has taken the decision to abandon the procurement on the basis that, in its current form, it does not adequately reflect the Council's requirements. The procurement will not therefore proceed further in its current form. As set out in the Invitation to Tender, the Council has the right to amend or cancel the procurement process at any stage and shall not be liable for any costs incurred by participants in doing so (see Section 1: Procurement Scope and General Information of Volume 1 - Invitation to Tender). The Council remains committed to commissioning high-quality Community Reablement and Homecare services. The Council intends to issue the revised tender in due course, which is expected to reflect broadly the same scope, scale, and volume of services, with strengthened criteria to support the process. We currently anticipate that the new procurement will be issued promptly, and further details, including the revised procurement documentation and a new timetable, will be published on the e-portal at the appropriate time. We would welcome your participation at that stage.",
