UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process, led by the Local Government Association, aimed to support staff and manager readiness for Care Quality Commission (CQC) assessments, aligning with the councils' improvement strategies. Held in London, the process was tailored for the Health and Social Work Services industry and executed under a limited competition model, below the threshold. Having reached the Award stage, it commenced on 10th July 2025, with the contracting phase concluding on 31st March 2026. The potential for contract extension exists, with the end date extendable to 30th September 2026. The procurement's value was set at £18,000 gross, with services awarded on 9th July 2025.

This tender presents significant business growth opportunities, especially for SMEs involved in health and social care services. Companies equipped to prepare and support council staff and managers through CQC assessments will find this contract beneficial. As the process has favoured smaller, agile organisations, businesses that specialise in consultancy or training within the public sector will be well-positioned to compete for similar future contracts, thereby augmenting their market presence and expertise in this sector.
