Summary of the contracting process

Aberdeen City Council has finalised the "National Care Home Contract (NCHC)", a significant procurement process in the General Public Services industry category. The contract, valued at £32 million, focuses on care home services within Aberdeen City, UKM50 region. With the contract awarded on 8th April 2024, and the status marked as active, this procurement followed a limited award procedure without prior publication of a competition call due to technical necessity.

This tender presents robust opportunities for businesses involved in healthcare and residential care services, particularly those capable of meeting the nationally agreed weekly rates for care home services. Companies with expertise in providing comprehensive care solutions and those with established footprints in the UK care home sector are well-suited to compete. Engaging in such contracts can lead to steady revenue streams, enhanced market reputation, and the potential to influence national care standards. The procurement method allows qualified suppliers to secure long-term partnerships and significantly grow their business footprint within the public sector.
