UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process titled "Home From Hospital" was conducted by Manchester City Council to provide support services for older individuals transitioning from hospital to home. The services are intended to improve outcomes by assisting with transport, integration, and safety in their home environment. The procurement falls under the health and social work services industry category and is located in Manchester, UK, with a specific focus on the UKD33 region. This procurement stage is currently at the contract award phase, which began on 1st July 2026 and will continue until 30th June 2028. The contract was directly awarded to Age Concern Manchester due to a previous competitive tender process that was disrupted, necessitating continuity of service for an essential public service.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the health and social work sector, particularly those with experience in providing support and care to older populations. Organisations that specialise in integrating health services with community support will find this contract aligns well with their capabilities. It is especially suited for larger enterprises with a voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) background, as the contract specifies suitability for VCSEs. The substantial contract value of £845,552.24 further highlights the potential for business growth through providing these essential services.
