## Summary

The procurement process is led by NHS Highland for the project titled "HH108-26-TW08 Adult Social Care Bespoke Services." This project focuses on the health industry category and is located in Inverness, Scotland. The project has reached the award stage as of 23 June 2026. NHS Highland, headquartered at Assynt House, Beechwood Park, Inverness (postcode IV2 3BW), has facilitated this procurement through a limited method, bypassing a public call for competition by choosing suppliers from an existing framework. The procurement consists of three lots: Inverness Enhanced Responder Service (ERS), Inverness Overnight Service (SOS), and Waking Night Responder Service (WNRS).

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), specialising in health and social care services. Companies that excel in adult social care, especially in collaborative care delivery to individuals being discharged from hospital or requiring overnight support, are well-suited for such opportunities. Organizations like Gateway - Highland Homeless Trust, The Lifeways Group, Richmond Fellowship Scotland, Castle Care (Scotland) Ltd, and others have already been awarded contracts. The procurement of such services, with a signed date of 23 June 2026 and active contract status, underscores demand for quality healthcare solutions tailored to both elderly and younger adults with care needs, bolstering business growth for service providers in this sector.
