## Summary

NHS Devon Integrated Care Board has completed the procurement process for the provision of long-term live-in care services in Devon, under the title "Long Term Live-In-Care Devon". This procurement falls within the health services industry category and serves the region UKK4. The contract, identified as W180708, was awarded through a direct award method due to its short-term nature, beginning on 1st April 2025. The procurement process is categorized as a service and was conducted without prior publication of a call for competition, intended as a temporary solution pending a full re-procurement. The contract includes a duration of nine months with potential for a three-month extension but was annulled for some lots due to being outside the directive's application scope.

This procurement opportunity highlights the potential for businesses operating in the health services sector, particularly those that specialize in long-term live-in care. SMEs, as well as larger companies capable of providing complex personal care in a home-based setting, could potentially benefit from such opportunities in the future re-procurement. Organisations like Abicare Services Ltd and others who participated in this direct award signal an active involvement of diverse suppliers across regions such as UKK, UKJ, and UKI, providing growth prospects for both established service providers and newer entrants with the right expertise and service capabilities. As the procurement method focuses on direct awards, it is essential for businesses to maintain strong relationships and be responsive to incremental opportunities in this sector.
