SOCIAL CARE
ESPO provides a professional and comprehensive solution for the procurement of social care services tailored to meet specific customer requirements.
Our established frameworks cover a wide range of social care requirements. They include:
- Supported living services
- Homecare services
- Domiciliary Care service
- Extra care provision
- Electronic monitoring and telecare
- Social alarm call services
- Floating support services
- Early years provision
- Childcare support services
- Advocacy Services
ESPO establishes national and regional frameworks where the services are able to be delivered on a wider scale. We also establish specific social care contracts for individual customers when our generic contracts do not cover the requirement. Please contact us for further details.
Why use ESPO for social care procurement?
ESPO delivers best value and compliance with EU and UK legislation. Our service is completely independent and auditable with all stages being fully documented.
Some of our frameworks have been established collaboratively through partnerships with Pro5, Government Procurement Service (GPS), the Cabinet Office, the Department of Health and other bodies, giving the combined purchasing power to secure prices and terms that are much more competitive than would be possible for customers to achieve if purchasing on their own.
If the social care service you require is not listed above, please contact us.
