## Summary

East Lothian Council, based in Haddington, East Lothian, has completed a tender process for "Care at Home and Housing Support Services" aimed at adults and children requiring support. This procurement, initiated on March 24, 2017, involved creating a framework agreement that will operate for five years, from April 1, 2017, to March 31, 2022, with possible extensions. The procurement method is open, and the award criteria emphasise quality (80%) over price (20), with a submission deadline that had occurred on January 26, 2017.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses in the care sector, particularly those specialised in home care and housing support services. Prospective bidders should ideally have Care Inspectorate registration and meet specific qualifications for personnel, indicating that companies experienced in social care, healthcare support services, and similar areas will be well-suited to compete. Engaging in this framework agreement could enhance service offerings and facilitate long-term contracts with the East Lothian local authority.
