Summary of the contracting process

Powys County Council has awarded a contract under its Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Domiciliary Care Services within Powys, Wales. The DPS, initiated on 2024, operates under a selective procurement method tailored to the social protection industry category and will remain open for a period of 10 years, with a possibility of a 5-year extension pending bi-annual reviews. This award, specifically associated with the provision of domiciliary care services in various geographic lots including Town, Rural, and Remote Rural areas of Powys, was formalised on 30th September 2020. Interested parties must be registered with the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) to qualify for participation.

The tender offers significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), as evidenced by the participation and selection of several SMEs including Affinity Homecare Group, Q CARE LIMITED, and Llewelyn Support Services Ltd, among others. With a total of 15 electronic bids received, of which 11 were from SMEs, the procurement caters particularly to businesses capable of delivering domiciliary care services especially for individuals with dementia. This presents an excellent opportunity for SMEs in the care industry to secure government contracts, enhance their market presence, and contribute to the social welfare sector in the region. Businesses providing high-quality, compliant domiciliary services, particularly with an interest in serving both urban and rural communities, would be well-suited for upcoming opportunities under this existing DPS arrangement.
