Summary of the contracting process

Falkirk Council procured a substance use treatment and recovery support service for the Falkirk area. The requirement sits within health and social care services and concerns support for people affected by substance use, with treatment and recovery support forming the core of the service. The procurement was awarded to CGL. The contract description refers suppliers to tender documents for the detailed service specification, so the precise delivery model and individual activities are not stated in the available summary. This is a specialist care and support service rather than a supply of goods or construction work, and is relevant to providers with experience delivering substance use services and supporting recovery in a local authority context.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Falkirk Council used a direct award to a single supplier without competition; the bid statistics record one bid. CGL was selected for an award valued at £483,966. The contract was signed on 10 August 2026, but no contract start or end date is recorded, so its duration cannot be established. The procurement is presented as one service requirement, with no separate lots identified. The award information does not set out evaluation criteria or eligibility requirements. The process title identifies the service as Falkirk ADP Substance Use Treatment & Recovery Support Service, reference AS/016/25. The procurement information refers to separate tender documents for the detailed specification, which is not described here.

For providers that did not win, this award demonstrates Falkirk Council’s demand for substance use treatment and recovery support delivered as a specialist service. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the capability to provide treatment and recovery support to people affected by substance use, and experience working in a local authority service context. The award went to CGL through a direct award rather than a competitive process, so this outcome does not reveal how bidders would be scored in a future competition or what formal qualifications would be required. The service is a single-provider requirement at a substantial local service scale, making relevant delivery experience and the ability to sustain a complete support service important commercial considerations. The detailed delivery model is not described in the available procurement information.
