Award of Dynamic Purchasing System for Domiciliary Care Services in Powys

The procurement process conducted by Powys County Council involves the establishment of a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the Provision of Domiciliary Care Services in Powys, aimed at providing support to individuals needing domiciliary care across different geographical areas such as Town, Rural, and Remote Rural regions. This procurement falls under the services category with the procurement method specified as a selective, restricted procedure. The DPS is set to run for an initial period of 10 years, with the possibility of a 5-year extension contingent upon bi-annual reviews.

The recent stage in this procurement process, dated 17th September 2025, has moved to contract award, with various suppliers contracted for different lots of care services, primarily focusing on social protection within the UKL24 region. This tender represents significant business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialised in providing domiciliary care services. Firms that are registered with the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) and equipped to deliver high-quality support to people with dementia and other care needs will find this opportunity to be promising.

As the DPS remains open, new providers can join by completing the Pre-Qualification Questionnaire, thus fostering competitive dynamics and innovation in service delivery. It offers the chance for suppliers to secure long-term contracts with Powys County Council, a leading buying organisation in the region, thereby assuring a steady demand over the upcoming years.
