Extra Care Services at two schemes in the Bradford District

The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council awarded a contract for Extra Care Services at two schemes within the Bradford District, specifically Elm Tree Court and Staveley Court. The procurement falls under the "Health and social work services" category, aiming to provide services in the UKE41 region. This award, concluded as of 31 March 2025, involved a direct award procedure without a prior call for competition, as the dual role of the landlord and care provider precludes viable procurement of the support element alone.

The contract, valued at £7,646,068 GBP, is active, offering optional extensions until 31 March 2030, contingent on satisfactory performance. This tender represents a unique opportunity for businesses involved in integrated housing and personal care services, particularly those that can operate as both landlords and care providers. Companies that specialise in the provision of health and social care services without requiring separate procurement for the support element would be well-positioned to address the needs covered by such contracts.

Given the nature of the award, there is a strong emphasis on providing comprehensive care solutions, ideal for larger entities like Housing 21 that are already established as suppliers within this domain.
