Home and Settle Service · UK public procurement notice
Authority: London Borough of Newham (Local council)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThis is a notice of the Authority's intention to award the proposed contract for the Service to the existing provider pursuant to Regulation 9 (3) of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023, Direct Award Process C. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award and neither does Procurement Act 2023.
The Home and Settle Service operates as a non regulated support service, meaning it does not require delivery by a CQC registered provider. Its purpose is to assist adults with limited local support networks to return home safely and re establish daily routines after hospital discharge, without providing any form of personal care. Because the service focuses solely on practical, low level support, it is well suited to delivery within the voluntary sector, where trained volunteers can contribute to tasks that enhance independence, social connection, and community based recovery.

Publisher note: This is a notice of an intention to make an award of the proposed contract for the Service to the existing provider, subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The proposed contract has not yet been awarded. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this proposed award. The standstill period will begin on the day after the notice of intention to award is published on Find-a-Tender Service. Representations by providers must be made in writing in accordance with Regulation 12(3) of the PSR to the Authority before midnight at the end of the 26th of June 2026: Any representations to the process must be received before midnight on the eighth working day after that day. Representations must be sent to the Authority in writing via to [email protected] with reasons why the provider believes that the Authority has failed to apply the PSR correctly. The provider must be able to set out reasonable grounds to support its belief. If any representations are received by the Authority during the standstill period, then it will remain open until the authority considers the representations and relevant information before making a further decision and submitting its formal response. If the bidder wishes to continue with its representation after the Authority's formal response, then they will need to contact The Independent Patient Choice and Procurement Panel detailed below. The Independent Patient Choice and Procurement panel will be responsible for reviewing representations in relation to the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). To use the Independent Patient Choice and Procurement Panel, bidders should read the terms on the NHS England website and email: [email protected]
