Summary of the contracting process

Angus Council bought care and support services for multiple adults with learning disabilities in Angus. The requirement covered delivery in Arbroath; the item-level location also identifies Montrose, Angus. The contract was called off from the Scotland Excel Care and Support Framework (2022), also described as the Care and Support Services Flexible Framework Agreement. This is social care provision rather than a general facilities or healthcare supply contract, and is relevant to providers able to deliver individualised support to adults with learning disabilities in the Angus area. The procurement was managed by Angus Council, a local authority. The service scope is described as support for multiple people, with the lot specifically identifying adults with learning disabilities.

The procurement is complete and Hillcrest Futures Limited was selected for the single lot. Angus Council used an open procedure to make a call-off from the Scotland Excel framework. The contract is active and was signed on 30 September 2026. Its recorded value is £2,790,530. The award data does not give a separate award date or contract-period dates. The lot concerned care and support for adults with learning disabilities in Arbroath. One bid was recorded for the lot, from an SME, and the award went to Hillcrest Futures Limited. The published process data does not describe specific evaluation criteria or bidder eligibility requirements, so the basis on which competing offers were assessed cannot be summarised beyond the stated open call-off procedure.

This award shows demand from Angus Council for commissioned care and support for multiple adults with learning disabilities, specifically in Arbroath. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement of this kind would have demonstrable capability to provide person-centred support to adults with learning disabilities and the operational capacity to serve more than one person in the local area. Experience delivering comparable community-based care and support would be directly relevant. The buyer used the Scotland Excel Care and Support Framework (2022) for this purchase, so familiarity with that framework route and its call-off arrangements would be commercially important. One SME submitted a bid and the selected provider, Hillcrest Futures Limited, is also an SME, indicating that this scale of service has been delivered by an SME supplier.
