## Summary

The Department of Health has awarded a contract titled "Carers' Passport" with a total value of £126,000. This procurement falls within the health and social work services category and was published on 14 February 2018. The procurement process was initiated as an open tender, which was accelerated to meet the requirements of the OJEU Notice. The contract period commenced on 7 March 2017 and is set to conclude on 30 March 2018. The original tender opportunity closed on 6 March 2017, and delivery addresses include various UK regions, including London, British Overseas Territories, and Channel Islands.

This contract presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in the development of community support tools for carers. Organisations specialising in health and social work services, especially those that have experience in creating educational toolkits and resources for community initiatives, would be well-suited to compete. This could include medium to large enterprises as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises that can effectively meet the project’s objective of recognising and aiding carers in their communities.

## Notice

The project aims to bring together learning and expertise from local schemes that help recognise carers and signpost them to sources of information, advice and support in their organisation and/or wider community. A toolkit and supporting resources will be developed to enable a range of organisations to set up or further develop their own Carer Passport schemes. This contract award was not published at the time of award. It has been published for transparency purposes to provide a record of existing departmental contracts.
