OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Argyll and Bute Council intends to procure occupational therapy minor adaptations, telecare installation and support for major adaptations. The services are intended to help deliver adaptations and telecare installations across Argyll and Bute, including its islands. The scope covers both installation work and support services; the planned procurement groups these requirements into a single lot. Suppliers working in occupational therapy-related adaptation services, telecare installation or major adaptation support may find the requirement relevant. The buyer is Argyll and Bute Council, and the stated delivery area is Argyll and Bute.

This process is at the planning stage: the council has stated an intention to procure, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The current exercise is market research, with interested parties asked to respond to a request for information by email by 30 October 2026. The council expects a subsequent notice on 11 January 2027. The procurement is planned as one lot covering the services across Argyll and Bute, including the islands. No procurement procedure, award criteria, eligibility requirements, contract value or contract duration is set out at this planning stage. The RFI is intended to inform the council’s preparations, rather than invite tenders or bids.

This planning exercise is most relevant to suppliers able to provide occupational therapy minor adaptations, telecare installation and support for major adaptations across a geographically dispersed area that includes islands. Businesses with experience coordinating installation and adaptation services across Argyll and Bute may be well placed to contribute useful market insight. The council is seeking responses to an RFI, so suppliers can use the research stage to share information relevant to shaping its future procurement. The scope combines several related service areas in a single planned lot; suppliers with capability across these areas, or able to work with specialist partners, may want to consider the fit. The stated requirement does not set out particular accreditations, staffing levels or experience thresholds.
