Summary of the contracting process

West Lothian Council has recently completed the procurement process for "Day Support Services for Older People" under a limited award procedure, aimed at providing services across five Day Care Centres in West Lothian. This contract, amounting to £851,560, was awarded effective from 11th January 2022, following a direct award process to existing providers to allow for continued service delivery during a period of adaptation post-COVID-19. This approach aligns with the Council's objective to modernise service delivery in response to changing client needs and eligibility criteria.

This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the social care and support sector, particularly those experienced in delivering day care services for older adults. Businesses specialising in senior care, community services, or those with a proven track record of operating within local authority frameworks may find this contract particularly suitable. The ongoing need for innovation in service delivery models offers a significant growth avenue for businesses committed to enhancing the quality of care for older individuals in the community.
