65+ years

Milton Keynes Council has completed the procurement process for a contract titled "65+ years," which falls under the Social Work and Related Services industry category. The open procedure involved awarding a contract for services to be delivered in the UKG13 region. This contract, initiated under the legal basis of CELEX:32014L0024, was awarded on 31 January 2025, with an active contract signed on the same date.

The contract, valued at £322.32, was awarded to Chiltern Healthcare, a supplier based in Milton Keynes. The procurement stage has concluded with the award of the contract. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in social work and related services, particularly those experienced in providing care for the elderly.

Companies specialising in quality service features would be well-suited to compete, given the award criteria heavily weighted towards service quality (60%) and price (40%). Chiltern Healthcare, the winning supplier, is an SME with a local presence, demonstrating that smaller, regional suppliers can successfully compete for public contracts. The involvement of Milton Keynes Council as the buying organisation underlines the importance of strong local and regional partnerships for business growth.
