This procurement is classified under Health and social work services, located in Hackney and Newham, and falls under the services category. The framework has been divided into five lots, including Prevention and Support for Adults, Support for Families, Connection to Care, Specialist Support Services, and Outreach and Communications. The procurement process follows an open procedure, allowing all qualified organisations or consortiums to submit tenders. The deadline for tender submissions is set for 20th April 2026, with contracts expected to be awarded shortly thereafter. Interested businesses should note that this framework will be periodically reopened throughout its lifecycle, offering multiple opportunities for engagement. This framework presents a significant opportunity for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) with experience in health and social work services to enhance their business growth. Organisations can apply for multiple lots within the framework, allowing them to expand their service offerings across diverse aspects of public health support. Businesses involved in preventative healthcare, family support, medical screenings, specialist HIV care, and health communications would be particularly well-suited to engage with this procurement. Given the framework's open access nature and lack of exclusivity limits, successful tenders could establish long-term collaborations with local authorities and health partners, thus fostering sustained growth within the UK healthcare sector. ## Notice The Framework duration is 4 years plus 4 years (4+4) subject to sustainability, suitability and value for money.
