Care at Home Flexible Framework

Scottish Borders Council, a regional authority, is in the planning stage for a procurement process titled "Care at Home Flexible Framework" under the services category. This process is part of the social work services industry, specifically for services without accommodation. The Council is seeking input via a questionnaire due by 21 July 2025 to inform the development of this framework.

The service is located in the Scottish Borders region (UKM91), and future notice for this tender is expected on 30 September 2025. The Council aims to improve care at home provisions, currently offering 6,441 hours of service per week to 960 clients, with a projected expenditure of £12,300,000 for 2024/25. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in social care services to influence and participate in a substantial contract that supports the local community's needs.

It is particularly suitable for providers with experience in delivering flexible, client-centric care solutions. Engaging in this process could help businesses expand their operations and solidify their presence in the Scottish social care sector. Providers with innovative care approaches and capacity to manage considerable client volumes are well-positioned to contribute meaningfully to this initiative.
