Award of Dynamic Purchasing System for Domiciliary Care Services in Powys

Powys County Council has awarded contracts under a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for domiciliary care services in Powys, within the social protection category. This procurement process, conducted through a restricted procedure, aims to provide domiciliary care, including support for individuals with dementia across town, rural, and remote rural areas in the Powys regional partnership. The DPS will initially operate for 10 years, with the option to extend for an additional 5 years, contingent on bi-annual reviews.

The procurement stage is in 'award', signalling completion, with contracts related to this stage having been signed as of 19th May 2025. This initiative aligns with Powys County Council's commitment to enhancing care services in the UKL24 region. This procurement process presents significant opportunities for SMEs specialising in domiciliary care services, as the DPS remains open for new registrations, allowing businesses to continually join the framework.

Affinity Homecare, PEOPLE SUPPORT LTD, ABICARE SERVICES LIMITED, CARE & GRACE LTD, and Q CARE LIMITED, all SMEs, have been awarded contracts, showcasing the inclusivity of the system for smaller providers registered with Care Inspectorate Wales in the Powys area. Businesses focused on care services, particularly those catering to dementia-related needs, can leverage this DPS to establish or expand their presence in Powys, fostering business growth through sustained service provision in a robust contractual framework.
