Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Havering has announced a planned procurement process for the "Adult Social Care Framework" designed to replace the current Complex Placements Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). This procurement, classified under the health and social work services industry (CPV code 85000000), is located within the United Kingdom region UKI, with services focused in Romford, UK. Presently in the planning update stage as of 4 June 2025, the process follows a light touch regime, indicating simplified procurement regulations applicable to certain social services. A future notice is expected by 9 July 2025, and the new contract period is projected from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2030.

This tender presents significant business opportunities for firms specializing in health and social care services. Prospective suppliers can benefit from establishing a framework agreement, which offers a stable revenue stream over multiple years. Companies experienced in managing adult social care frameworks and those familiar with the specific needs of public authorities at a sub-central government level will be well-positioned to compete. Additionally, businesses adept at navigating the light touch procurement regime will find the process accommodating. Engaging with this tender provides an avenue for enterprises to expand their influence and operational footprint within the UK’s health and social care sector.
