Summary of the contracting process

Powys County Council has established a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the provision of Domiciliary Care Services in Powys, marked by a complete award stage as of November 2025. This procurement process utilises a restricted procedure for service delivery, segmented into three lots covering Domiciliary Care for towns, rural, and remote rural areas in North and South Powys. The DPS, initially running for ten years with a possible five-year extension, maintains openness for new providers certified by the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW). Suppliers involved include several SMEs, such as Abacare (Care Agency) Ltd, Affinity Homecare Group, and others, emphasising the procurement's focus on inclusivity across the region classified under CPV 85000000.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in domiciliary care services or those looking to enter the market within the Powys area. The dynamic system allows new entrants to join, fostering an environment conducive to competition and innovation. Supplier selection is based on a methodical pre-qualification process, aligning with the council's aim to ensure high-quality care. Businesses specialising in domiciliary services, especially those with experience in managing dementia care within diverse geographic settings, will be well-suited to compete for service delivery contracts. The ongoing opportunity for new participants ensures continuous engagement and potential for growth within the sector.
