Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council has concluded a procurement process to provide Housing Support/Care at Home and Outreach Services for adults with mental health difficulties, learning disabilities, and physical disabilities, under the title 'Carr Gomm'. The industry category for this service falls under Social Care, specifically within the Children’s and Families Service. The procurement was finalised under a limited procurement method, following a contract award without a prior call for competition due to its specialist nature. The services are located in Dundee, with the contract officially signed on 1 April 2024, and valued at £4,230,311. The award stage of this process is complete, with Carr Gomm being designated as the supplier.

This tender opens up business growth opportunities notably for large-scale organisations with experience and expertise in delivering specialist social care services. Given the substantial value and the niche nature of the services required, businesses specialising in healthcare and social support are best suited to engage in similar future tenders. Such contracted services offer a stable revenue stream while also allowing businesses to enhance their portfolio in government-funded public welfare projects. As this was a limited process, understanding the rationale and specifics behind such direct awards can provide strategic insights for potential future opportunities in this domain.
