Domiciliary Care Services

West Berkshire Council, identified as the buying organisation, is in the planning stage of its procurement process for the Domiciliary Care Services contract, which is anticipated to provide health and social work services across West Berkshire. The procurement falls under the industry category of 'services', specifically focusing on social services, and is classified under the CPV codes related to health and social work. A critical date for interested parties is the virtual early market engagement meeting scheduled for 9 July 2025 at 11:00 am.

The contract is expected to commence on 1 January 2026 and conclude on 31 December 2030. Businesses should prepare for future notices anticipated around 1 October 2025. This tender presents significant opportunity for businesses involved in health and social care services, particularly those experienced with frameworks and light-touch regime contracts.

The potential for both new and established businesses to compete is substantial, given the emphasis on social work services without accommodation, which may attract dynamic and innovative service providers who are ready to enhance domiciliary care solutions. Businesses with a strategic interest in expanding or establishing their services within the community care sector in the United Kingdom, especially within the region of West Berkshire, would find this tender particularly beneficial for growth and expansion. Engaging in the early market meeting will allow these businesses to influence the procurement process with their insights and ideas.
