Summary of the contracting process

Angus Council procured care and support services for multiple adults with learning disabilities in Arbroath, Angus. The service is intended to provide support to those individuals; the procurement description identifies the client group and locality but does not set out a more detailed service model. This is a social care service, classified under CPV 85310000. The contract was awarded to Ark Housing Association Ltd. The requirement was a call-off from Scotland Excel’s Care and Support Services Flexible Framework Agreement (2022), so it formed part of an established framework for care and support rather than a standalone purchase. The delivery location is Arbroath, Angus.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. Angus Council used an open procedure to make a call-off from the Scotland Excel Care and Support Services Flexible Framework Agreement. The requirement was presented as one lot covering support for multiple adults with learning disabilities in Arbroath. Ark Housing Association Ltd received the award. The contract is active and was signed on 30 September 2026, at a value of £2,244,135. The process recorded one bid for the lot, from an SME, submitted electronically. No separate award date or contract period is stated in the published process details, and no evaluation criteria are described.

This award shows demand from Angus Council for ongoing care and support for adults with learning disabilities in Arbroath, delivered through the Scotland Excel framework route. Suppliers seeking to compete for the same requirement when it returns to market would need to demonstrate the ability to provide person-centred support to multiple adults with learning disabilities in the local area, as well as the operational capacity to deliver a substantial service. The successful supplier was Ark Housing Association Ltd, indicating that a housing association with care and support provision was considered suitable for this contract. The single bid recorded suggests limited competition for this particular call-off, but does not establish why. Experience delivering comparable adult social care services and a credible local delivery model would be relevant strengths.
