## Summary

West Northamptonshire Council commissioned adult social care day services through an individual support arrangement. The service is for an identified person whose needs have been assessed under the Care Act 2014. It covers tailored care, support and supervision, with the aim of improving or maintaining the person’s health, wellbeing, independence and quality of life. The procurement is categorised as health and social work services (CPV 85000000). Delivery is arranged around the individual’s assessed care and support requirements rather than a general service population. The council is the public-sector buyer, and the requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. This is a specialist care service opportunity for providers able to deliver consistent, person-centred day support and wellbeing outcomes within an individual arrangement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition under the light-touch regime. Brookside Day Centre Ltd was selected as the provider for the single lot, with an awarded value of £625,489.80 including tax. The award outcome was recorded on 3 September 2026. The contract period is 4 September 2026 to 3 September 2031, with provision to extend for up to two further five-year periods, subject to the stated arrangement. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 4 September 2026. The requirement was evaluated through the council’s direct commissioning route for an individual’s assessed care and support needs; the published outcome does not set out a competitive scoring exercise or separate quality and price weightings.

This award indicates sustained demand from West Northamptonshire Council for individually commissioned adult social care day services, at substantial service scale and over a long operating period. Providers seeking to compete for comparable requirements will need the operational capacity to support an identified adult consistently across day-service provision, while adapting delivery to assessed care and support needs. Credibility will depend on demonstrating safe, reliable care, appropriate supervision and support, and the ability to achieve measurable wellbeing outcomes. Relevant experience should include person-centred adult social care, maintaining independence and quality of life, and working within Care Act-informed assessments. A small or medium-sized provider can be suitable, provided it can evidence the staffing, governance and service continuity needed for an individual support arrangement.
