The service falls under the "Social Care" category and is to be provided in Dundee, with the contract focusing on services for adults.

The contract was signed on 1st April 2024 and is valued at £174,088. This represents a strategic continuation of a prior arrangement, ensuring uninterrupted service provision.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in adult social care services, particularly those with experience in providing specialised health and social service support.
