Home Care Framework Procurement 2027-3035

Bracknell Forest Borough Council · Local authority

In brief

Bracknell Forest Borough Council has announced plans to buy care and healthcare work. This is an early notice: there is nothing to bid on yet, but it tells you a tender may follow.

It is a framework worth up to £66,666,667 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 5 years, up to 8 years with extensions, starting 1 October 2027.

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.

Can I win this?

Competition

Typical: a median of 5 bids per contract for this buyer (from 12 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £66,666,667 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

Bracknell Forest Council is re tendering the Home Care Framework for the provision of Home care services. The framework will be used to commission home care services that ensure residents receive the right support in a way that is efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective. We are seeking Pre Market Engagement to help the Council in designing and structuring the new Home care framework. Please follow this link to access the pre market engagement questionnaire: https://sebp.due-north.com/
