Summary of the contracting process

Angus Council is in the Planning stage of a procurement process aiming to conduct market research for providing a 4 Bed Respite Service in Angus for adults with learning disabilities and complex needs. This engaging opportunity falls under the General public services category and targets service providers within the region UKM71, specifically Forfar. The procurement exercise is not yet a call for competition but aims to gather information to inform future needs.

The initiative is planned with its main procurement category being services, with a focus on ensuring facilities are accessible for those with additional physical disabilities.
