Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Barnet is actively seeking providers for their upcoming Home and Community Support services tender. The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, and aims to establish a multi-supplier framework agreement divided into three lots: Adult Home and Community Support, Live-In Care, and Support to Children. Interested parties can submit proposals until 12 May 2026, with the enquiry period closing on 22 April 2026. The services are focused on high-quality, outcomes-driven, and person-centred support, facilitating individuals' independence and wellbeing at home and within the community. This framework, valued at £36 million, is intended for delivery in the UKI71 region, London, UK, under an open procedure and with a light touch regime as per sections 16 and 17 of the Procurement Act 2023.

This tender provides lucrative opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services to expand their operations within London's public sector. The inclusion of multiple lots means various service providers can tailor their expertise—whether in adult care, live-in support, or child-focused services—to meet requirements. The framework is particularly accommodating for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), offering significant competitive chances due to its value-oriented award criteria favouring price and quality. Engaging with this tender can bolster businesses within the industry, equipping them to deliver robust social value via direct service provision in alignment with public sector demand.
