## Summary

The procurement process initiated by West Lothian Council involved the direct award of a contract for building-based day care services for older adults at Braid House. This contract was awarded without prior publication of a call for competition, facilitated by the procurement method's limited nature, as the contract value was below the Government Procurement Agreement threshold, allowing for a direct award. The contract is categorised under social protection within the services industry and pertains to the location of Livingston, UKM78. The procurement reached the award stage, with the contract being signed on 25 February 2026 following approval granted by the West Lothian Council Executive on 9 December 2025.

This tender provides opportunities for businesses specialising in social care services to engage with local authority contracts potentially leading to growth through the provision of essential services to the community. The procurement was tailored for entities well-versed in caring for older adults, particularly those with expertise in delivering day care services. Although the opportunity for competitive bidding was not available due to the contract's direct award nature, businesses aligned with social protection services can explore similar prospects as part of the council's procurement activities within the region, fostering potential business development and expansion.

### Procurement Information

A direct award is permissible within procurement regulations as the cumulative value is below the GPA threshold of GBP552,950 ex vat. Regulation 3 (10) of the Public Procurement (Scotland) Regulations 2016 makes provision for the aggregation of public contracts where the value of all contracts for similar supplies and services awarded during the previous 12 months must be aggregated. The aggregated value determines whether the contract is over the Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) threshold. The total proposed contract value of GBP451174 is below the Light Touch Regime threshold (GBP552,950 excluding VAT) and therefore, in line with the Scottish Government guidance on the Procurement of Care and Support. The Council can choose not to seek offers for Social Care and Other Related Services contracts on a case by case basis.
