Located in Llandrindod Wells, the Council invites contractors to join the DPS, creating an approved list for service provision. This restricted procedure, under the new Procurement Act 2023, mandates existing DPSs to conclude by February 2029, with submissions open electronically until the end of this period. The tender's current stage is active under the selective procurement method. Interested parties are encouraged to engage early to optimise participation in available Lots such as Sessional Domiciliary Care and Live-in Care. This tender presents significant business growth opportunities for domiciliary care providers, particularly those registered with the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW). The DPS, comprising multiple Lots, allows businesses to bid for one or more service areas, enhancing flexibility and reach within the Powys region. Ideal competitors are well-established care providers or consortia capable of delivering comprehensive domiciliary support aligned with the Council's constitution and technical selection criteria. This opportunity supports expanding market presence in social care services, with potential long-term contracting prospects until 2029. ## Notice The Council is inviting contractors to join a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the Provision of Domiciliary Care Services in Powys. The initial period for the DPS was 10 years, with an option to extend for a further 5 years. However with the introduction of new Procurement Act 2023, there is a requirement for DPS's established under PCR2015 to end by 24th February 2029. The DPS has been paused for a period of review which is now complete and the Council is re-opening the DPS for providers to apply to join. The Council will assemble and maintain an approved list of contractors for the Provision of Domiciliary Care. Providers are required to be registered with the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) to provide domiciliary support services in the Powys regional partnership area. The DPS will remain open so new providers can complete the Pre-Qualification Questionnaire. The DPS and proposed Lots within it: The DPS and proposed Lots: Lot 1: Sessional Domiciliary Care Lot 2: Live in Care Lot 3: Powys Teaching Health Board Providers can bid for one or more Lots.
