OJEU - F21 - Social And other Specific Services (Public Contracts)
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Stirling Council, is focused on providing Independent Advocacy Services across the Forth Valley region. This open tender, classified under the social services industry category, highlights a total contract value of £1,500,000. Key dates include the tender period that ends on 3rd August 2017, following a successful contract signing on 30th August 2017. The involved parties also include Falkirk Council, Clackmannanshire Council, and NHS Forth Valley, all collaborating to meet statutory requirements for independent advocacy in health and social care.

This opportunity presents significant potential for growth for businesses specialising in advocacy and social services, particularly those experienced in working with local authorities or healthcare providers. Organisations that can demonstrate compliance with financial capability criteria, such as an annual turnover of £375,000 in relevant business areas and the necessary insurance coverage, would be well-positioned to compete. Moreover, bidders are encouraged to showcase their commitment to community benefits, making this a compelling avenue for businesses focused on social impact and local engagement.
