This extensive service is offered within a specialised six-bed unit intended to serve residents comprehensively, potentially through their entire lifespan. The procurement falls under the 'Health and social work services' category, underscoring the specialised care required. Situated in Forfar, Scotland, the contracting process reached its award stage on 14 April 2026, and was initiated as a direct award, whereby HC One Ltd was appointed as the sole supplier due to the contract structure's nature. This process commenced with the signing of the contract on 7 January 2024, ensuring continuity of care and provision of necessary services.
