## Summary

Staffordshire County Council procured community-based day opportunities, classified as health and social work services, for people aged 16 and over with learning disabilities, autistic spectrum conditions, mental ill health, acquired brain injuries, physical disabilities, sensory impairments and/or behaviours that challenge. The service is intended to provide daytime support and opportunities in community settings across Staffordshire. It is arranged through the Council’s Light Touch Regime Dynamic Purchasing System, which supports new arrangements and competition for existing spot-purchased services. The buyer is Staffordshire County Council, based in Stafford. The recorded supplier, Care Wings Limited, is based in Cheadle. This requirement is relevant to care and support providers able to deliver community-based daytime services for adults and young people with a range of complex support needs.

The procurement has reached the award stage. It used a selective procurement method described as a restricted procedure, within a two-stage Light Touch Regime Dynamic Purchasing System operated electronically through Proactis. The stated evaluation criterion was price. The recorded award is active and was made to Care Wings Limited. The associated contract is active, was signed on 1 June 2026, and is valued at £458.39. One bid was recorded. The single listed lot is marked cancelled, while the recorded award and contract remain active. The procurement description covers awards made between 1 April 2026 and 30 June 2026. The process is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. No contract end date or duration is stated in the procurement data.

This award demonstrates a current Staffordshire County Council requirement for community-based daytime support delivered to people with varied disabilities, mental health needs and behaviours that challenge. Suppliers well placed for comparable work would be established care or support organisations with the operational capability to work safely with people aged 16 and over across these client groups. Relevant experience would include person-centred community provision, managing differing levels of need, supporting people with autism, learning disabilities, acquired brain injuries, sensory impairments or mental ill health, and responding appropriately to behaviours that challenge. The buyer uses a Light Touch Regime Dynamic Purchasing System and electronic sourcing, so a credible competitor would need to operate through that route and respond to call-for-competition opportunities on a price-led basis. The requirement may suit providers able to serve Staffordshire reliably at local scale.
