The procurement aims to establish a five-year framework, extendable to eight years, for supporting various adult groups within the local authority area. Contracting commenced on 5 February 2024 with awards populated across several providers, including SMEs mainly based in South Yorkshire and surrounding regions. The procurement stage is in the tender update phase as of February 2026, following an open procurement method initially activated in September 2023. While the initial tender period ended on 6 October 2023, adjustments have been made with several rounds of awarding, most recently recognised on 17 February 2026. The framework represents significant business growth opportunities for companies supplying health and social care services, particularly those adept at catering to diverse needs, such as mental health support, disability services, and care for elders with dementia. SMEs in the Sheffield and Barnsley regions, including Mary Ruth Care Services and MidCo Care Limited, have been successful, illustrating a preferential tilt toward localised entities with strong community linkages. The competitive landscape is robust, with over 100 businesses vying during the procurement phase. As the borough emphasises quality in service provision, firms specialising in holistic and client-centred care models stand in good stead to compete and expand their business footprint through this sizable public contract. ## Notice The Council is looking to establish a new five-year(if all extensions utilised) fixed framework contract for the provision of Support to Live at Home (STLAH) within the local authority area.
