## Summary

Blackwood Homes and Care, based in Edinburgh, has recently completed a procurement process to appoint an evaluation partner for stage 2 of the Blackwood Neighbourhoods for Independent Living Project. The tender was categorised under 'Services' and was conducted through a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. The award of the contract, valued at £90,000, was signed on 20 May 2021, with the procurement stage classified as complete, following a successful bid by Hall Aitken.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses focused on evaluation and consultancy services, particularly those with expertise in social housing and community amenities. Companies capable of contributing to the independent living sector, especially those with demonstrated skills in evaluation processes, analysis, and project support, would be well-suited to future tenders. This is particularly relevant given the context of investment in social community projects, where firms can leverage their experience to grow alongside initiatives that aim to improve services for vulnerable populations.
