Award of Dynamic Purchasing System for Domiciliary Care Services in Powys

Powys County Council, a regional authority responsible for social protection, has completed an award process under its Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Domiciliary Care Services in Powys. The procurement process is categorized under Health and Social Work Services and follows a selective, restricted procedure that was initiated to address the needs of domiciliary services across North and South Powys. The procurement stage is in the 'award' stage, finalized as of 4th November 2025.

The DPS is set to run for an initial 10-year period with a possible extension, and the awarded contracts cover key areas, including Town, Rural, and Remote Rural domiciliary care services, catering particularly to individuals with dementia. This procurement initiative presents significant growth opportunities for businesses registered with the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) to engage in the regional domiciliary care market within Powys. The open nature of the DPS allows new entrants, fostering a competitive environment particularly suitable for SMEs experienced in health and social care services.

The awarded contracts include supplier engagements with Q CARE LIMITED, Affinity Homecare Group, PHOENIX HOMECARE AND SUPPORT LTD, and PEOPLE SUPPORT LTD, each positioned to deliver comprehensive care services across varied geographical regions within Powys. Businesses adept in offering tailored health and social services, especially those capable of operating in diverse local settings such as towns and rural areas, are well-poised to benefit from such procurement opportunities.
