UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Camden, a sub-central government public authority, is planning a procurement process for "Supporting People at Home" within the health and social work services industry category. This is a pipeline notice, indicating upcoming procurement activities which are not yet open for competition. The services will involve ongoing care and reablement services designed to support Camden residents at home, targeting individuals aged 18 and above. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with key future dates including the communication of further notice expected by 1st December 2025. The contract is planned to commence on 1st October 2026 and is set to run until 30th September 2031, with the potential to extend until 2033. The procurement is categorised as a 'light touch' regime, aimed at services that require flexibility in the procurement process.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social care services, especially those capable of delivering geographically-localised care services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the health sector can find avenues for expansion by engaging with this contract, given its emphasis on ongoing and reablement care which is executed through multiple locality-based contracts. Businesses adept at providing short-term and long-term care solutions will be well-suited to compete when this process progresses past the planning stage, allowing them to expand their service offerings within the Camden area. The procurement method, focusing on a diverse range of neighbourhood and locality-based contracts, encourages competitive diversity and is aligned with the council's goals of promoting community-based support systems.
