## Summary

Southwark Council is preparing to launch a procurement exercise for care at home services, aimed at covering all service user groups within London. The estimated annual value of this procurement opportunity is up to £24 million. Currently in the planning stage, the council has set an engagement end date of 23 February 2018. A bidders' meeting is scheduled for 9 January 2017 at the Council's Offices located at 160 Tooley Street, SE1 2QH. Interested parties can email careathome@southwark.gov.uk for more details. The council plans to use an e-procurement system for this tender, and registration should be completed beforehand via a prescribed link.

This procurement opportunity presents substantial growth potential for businesses in the health and social work services sector, particularly those specialising in home care. Companies adept in providing geographically tailored and demand-led services aligned with local care networks would be particularly well-suited to compete. Attending the upcoming bidders' meeting and engaging with the council’s early market events would also provide valuable insights and networking opportunities for prospective suppliers.
