## Summary

Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council (Solihull MBC) is currently in the tender stage for a procurement titled "Residential and Nursing Care (Working Age Adults and Older People) Market Engagement". This project falls under the industry category of welfare services for the elderly and other related health and social work services. The procurement is located in the West Midlands, United Kingdom. The council is conducting a market testing exercise, which follows an earlier webinar held earlier this month, to inform future procurements aimed at securing the necessary capacity to meet local needs. Key dates include the tender period ending on 29th September 2024 and the contract period starting from 30th September 2024 to 31st October 2024.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), involved in residential nursing care and social work services. Companies that specialise in welfare services for the elderly or have experience in delivering health and social work services are well-suited to compete. Engaging in this procurement process could open avenues for growth by allowing businesses to establish or expand their presence in the vital public sector care services market. With Solihull MBC seeking market insights to shape their future procurements, participating firms can influence the strategies that will drive local social care initiatives.

## Notice

The Council has in place a Residential and Nursing Care Flexible Contract Agreement which is currently due to expire on the 30th September 2026. The Council wants to engage with the market to help inform the shape of future procurements to secure the right capacity to meet local needs in the future. We propose a market testing exercise to help with this. This exercise is a follow up to an earlier webinar carried out earlier this month.
