Summary of the contracting process

Dundee City Council has recently completed the award stage of a procurement process for a service entitled "The Inclusion Group", which aims to provide care at home and enabling services for children and young people with disabilities, along with their families. Situated in Dundee, this project falls under the social care industry category, with the specific aim of supporting the local community. The contract, valued at £307,101, was signed on 1st April 2024 and is active. The procurement followed a limited procedure without the need for prior publication of a call for competition, due to its specific nature as a continuation of an existing specialist service.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the social care sector, particularly those specialising in services for children and families. It is well-suited for businesses with expertise in providing comprehensive care solutions and those capable of delivering tailored services to young people with disabilities. Given the nature of the service and its strategic importance to the community in Dundee, businesses with a strong local presence and experience in collaborating with public authorities will likely find this opportunity advantageous for growth and establishing long-term partnerships.
