Summary of the contracting process

Slough Borough Council is in the planning stages of a procurement process titled "Supported Living Framework," targeting the health and social work services industry. This initiative is designed to provide care and support to individuals in Supported Living Schemes within Slough, assisting them in living independently with personalised care. The procurement process is set to culminate in a framework agreement, which is expected to be inclusive for SMEs and VCSEs, and the primary location is Slough, United Kingdom. The procurement stage is currently identified as 'planning' with no financial commitment disclosed at this stage. Key dates to note include a future notice anticipated by 1st September 2026 and the planned contract period running from 1st April 2027 to 31st March 2032, with potential extensions until 2035.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses involved in providing health and social work services, as well as those specialising in social work services with accommodation. Enterprises that are adept at offering bespoke care solutions and that can tailor their services to increase or maintain client independence within a Supported Living environment will find this framework highly advantageous. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary/community/social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly suited to compete, given the focus on personalised service delivery and the inclusion of a 'light touch' regime aimed at fostering competitive participation from diverse business entities.
