Care and support at home

Liverpool City Council has initiated a procurement process for "Care and support at home" services, focusing on domiciliary care. This initiative falls under the social work and related services industry category. The procurement process is currently at the planning stage, with a significant milestone due on 25 March 2025, when responses to the market interest questionnaire are expected.

This engagement aims to gather insights from domiciliary care providers to design a competitive tender. The Council supports approximately 2,500 individuals weekly, investing around £32 million annually. The competition will be based in the UKD72 region, specifically Liverpool, with services commencing from 1 December 2025, and potentially extending until 2033.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in social care services, particularly those providing home-help services. The future tender process is ideal for businesses with experience in supporting a large number of home care clients. Additionally, organisations capable of handling large contracts with a budget of around £32 million annually would find this opportunity well-suited to their capabilities.

Engaging in this tender process will allow businesses to establish or strengthen their presence in the public sector, enhance client volume, and contribute to an essential community service.
