Homecare 24-27

NHS Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly Integrated Care Board has awarded a contract for the provision of community health services under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Regulations 2023. The contract, titled "Homecare 24-27," falls under the industry category of services (community health services) and is to be delivered in Cornwall (region UKK30). The procurement stage has been marked as complete, with the contract awarded to Home not Hospital Ltd, formerly known as LDA Care Ltd. The contract covers a three-year period from 1 October 2024 to 30 September 2027 and is valued at £0 based on activity.

The procurement method was a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition due to the nature of the PSR, and the contract was signed on 1 October 2024. This tender can create significant opportunities for businesses specialising in community health services, particularly those that can offer homecare solutions to individuals within the specified locality. Businesses with experience in delivering healthcare services within the public sector would be well-suited to compete for such contracts in the future.

As the contract does not restrict the number of providers, it opens avenues for SMEs and other service providers to expand their operations and establish a presence in the healthcare domain. The opportunity favours companies adept at managing service contracts over several years, ensuring continual and reliable service delivery.
