Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council recently awarded a contract for the "Dundee Volunteer and Voluntary Action - Substance Use Engagement Service," a project focused on peer recovery services within the social care industry category. The procurement process did not require prior publication due to its status as a previously awarded, rolling contract. This project, with a delivery location in Dundee (region UKM71), reached the award stage, culminating in a contract signed on 1st April 2024 and marked as active, with a value of £108,150. The tender process was limited, meaning competition was restricted, and the award was made to Dundee Voluntary Action, reflecting the regional specificity of the service delivery.

The procurement of the Substance Use Engagement Service represents a vital opportunity for businesses involved in social care and peer recovery services to expand their presence in the Dundee area. The focus on engagement and involvement in substance use care aligns well with small to medium enterprises (SMEs) that provide niche healthcare and community services, as evidenced by the involvement of Dundee Voluntary Action. Such contracts not only enhance service delivery but also foster collaboration with local authorities, positioning businesses to gain credibility and strengthen relationships within the public sector. This contract, completed with three SME bids, underscores the prospect for SMEs to actively engage and grow within the public procurement framework, particularly in regional and community-focused service sectors.
