Summary of the contracting process

West Lothian Council is procuring Day Support Services for Older People through a direct award process, with a contract value of £3,396,000. This procurement falls under the services category and is intended for five Day Care Centres within West Lothian. The Council has determined that an urgent response is necessary due to the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a six-month direct award given the unforeseen circumstances affecting normal procurement processes. The contract was signed on 10 July 2020, and details of the award can be found at the provided link.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in care services, particularly those that have experience in providing support to vulnerable populations. The direct award means that specific suppliers, including Acredale House Day Centre and Answer Housing Support, have been chosen based on their qualifications rather than competitive bidding. Businesses that can demonstrate capacity and quality in delivering care services during challenging times would be well-suited to explore future opportunities with West Lothian Council in this sector.
