## Summary

The Western Health and Social Care Trust is managing a procurement process for the provision of domiciliary care services within their jurisdiction, specifically for Lot 4 covering Lisnaskea. The service falls under the community, social, and personal services category. This contract has been subject to various modifications due to unforeseen circumstances, leading to extensions and adjustments in service rates, with the latest update increasing the hourly rate to £21.35 from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026. These changes comply with the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, ensuring the delivery of uninterrupted domiciliary care. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, and the contract period has been extended until 31st October 2026 to accommodate the re-tendering process. The buying organisation is based in Derry, UK.

With the tender in the award phase, businesses specialising in health and social care services have opportunities to secure significant work with the Western Health and Social Care Trust. This tender could offer substantial growth, particularly for suppliers capable of meeting service requirements under the National Living Wage conditions. Large service providers like North West Care and Support Ltd, and smaller entities such as Care Plus NI Ltd, have been included in previous contracts, indicating potential for a range of business scales to compete effectively. Companies can benefit from the supportive financial structures adjusted for wage increases, providing stability and capacity-building opportunities within the sector.
