Summary of the contracting process

The Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council plans to award a contract under the Provider Selection Regime for the "Community Falls Prevention Exercise Programme: Dance to Health" service. This is a community health initiative aimed at preventing falls among older adults in Dudley, identified under the CPV code 85323000 for community health services. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with the decision pending after the standstill period, which ends at midnight on 24 September 2025. The contract's value is approximately £220,000, structured over an initial two-year term with a potential extension for another two years, running from September 2025 to September 2029. The procurement method is limited, without prior publication of a call for competition, aligning with the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.

This tender offers significant business opportunities, particularly for companies specialising in community health services. The programme is tailored for older adults, and companies with expertise in health and fitness programmes for this demographic would find this contract highly suitable. As the procurement method involves a direct award process, businesses that have an existing relationship with local councils, or those that can demonstrate capability and adaptability in delivering public health initiatives, might have a competitive edge. The local focus of the project bolsters opportunities for regional businesses to expand their service offerings and build lasting partnerships with public sector bodies like Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council.
