Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process for the "Warrington Healthy at Home Service" was initiated by Warrington Borough Council, a sub-central government public authority in Warrington, United Kingdom. The procurement process followed an open procedure method, with the focus on providing guidance and counselling, and welfare services outside of residential institutions under the CPV classification. The award stage was completed on 17th March 2026 with Warrington Voluntary Action being the selected supplier. The contract extends from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2028, with a potential extension of another year. The service's aim is to support wellbeing, independence, and healthy aging through short-term early interventions for adults in the Warrington area, making it directly beneficial to the local community and driving the efforts for preventive care.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses focusing on healthcare services, particularly those with expertise in guidance and counselling, welfare services, and preventative care approaches like falls prevention. Organisations looking to engage seniors and vulnerable adults, improve social inclusion, and support digital technology usage will find this contract beneficial. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs), especially those with local experience and the ability to deliver community-based services, are well-suited to compete for such tenders. The requirement to enhance digital confidence, aid in hospital discharge, and reduce isolation aligns with the strengths-focused and accessible service demanded by the council, providing an advantageous positioning for businesses aiming to expand within this niche of community care services.
