## Summary

The Midlothian Council, located at Midlothian House, Buccleuch Street, Dalkeith, is overseeing the procurement process for the contract titled "MID-20-54 - Care at Home." This initiative falls under the health and social work services industry and is currently in the completed stage, after an open tender procurement method was utilised. The contract duration is set for four years, with an option for extension for an additional four years. The tender period attracted bids for three specific geographical lots: Lot 1 (Penicuik and surrounding area), Lot 2 (Bonnyrigg and surrounding area), and Lot 3 (Gorebridge and surrounding area), with awards to suppliers including McSence Limited, Call-in Homecare Ltd, and Cera Care Operations Scotland Ltd. The successful bids were signed on 21st June 2021.

This care at home contract offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social care services, particularly those experienced in providing personal support to older individuals and those with physical disabilities. Firms capable of delivering tailored in-home care are well-suited to bid, especially small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their service offerings. The involvement of local suppliers in the tendering process indicates a preference for businesses familiar with the nuances of the Midlothian area, which may enhance the prospects of local partnerships and community-based initiatives within this essential service provision.
