## Summary

The procurement process, titled "Care at Home Procured Service Arrangement," is being conducted by South Lanarkshire Council, located in Hamilton, UK. This initiative falls under the social care industry category and is currently in the planning stage. Key activities include a market engagement event scheduled for 6th December 2019 and a deadline for submitting responses to the Market Engagement Questionnaire by 17:00 on 20th December 2019. The council aims to maintain and enhance Care at Home services to meet the increasing needs of an ageing population across various local areas, including East Kilbride, Hamilton, Rutherglen/Cambuslang, and Clydesdale.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in home care services, particularly those providing personal and non-personal care and support. Companies that specialise in social care or have expertise in community health services would be particularly well-suited to compete. The market engagement event will allow potential bidders to share insights on service delivery models and contract structures, thereby contributing to a well-informed final specification. The growing demand for Care at Home services indicates that providers who can demonstrate a commitment to quality and responsiveness will have excellent opportunities for business growth in this sector.
