## Summary

Wokingham Borough Council has undertaken a tender process for the provision of residential and/or nursing care services, necessitated by urgent requirements stemming from the COVID-19 outbreak. The procurement, classified under "Other community, social and personal services", is in the Award stage, with the contract awarded on 29th March 2020. The contract, valued at £117,000, has a duration starting on 30th March 2020 and running until 30th September 2020. Due to the urgency, the Council employed a limited procurement method, waiving the standard publication requirements as per the Public Contract Regulations 2015.

This tender presents notable growth opportunities for businesses in the care services sector, particularly those experienced in residential and nursing care provision. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) interested in expanding their service offerings in the South East of England should consider competing for similar tenders, as there may be further opportunities arising from ongoing needs in community and personal services, especially accentuated by the current public health climate.

## Notice

The COVID-19 outbreak has given rise to an urgent need for the supply of residential care services due to facilitate rapid hospital discharge. This does not give Wokingham Borough Council sufficient time to comply with the standard open procedure timescales for this procurement. Wokingham Borough Council considers this to be a state of urgency which it has duly substantiated. Accordingly, Wokingham Borough Council is using the accelerated time limits permitted under the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (regulation [27(5) for the open procedure]) in respect of this procurement.
