Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire County Council procured supported accommodation for children through its independent placement arrangements. The requirement falls within health and social work services, with related community, social and personal services. Delivery is associated with Lincoln, Lincolnshire and the wider East Midlands in the United Kingdom. The procurement concerns accommodation with support for children placed through children’s services, rather than a general construction, property or accommodation-supply contract. It is relevant to organisations that provide supported living or residential support for children and can operate in or serve Lincolnshire and the East Midlands. The council is the buyer and the selected provider is Victory Care Limited, based in Leicester.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 10 November 2025 at 12:00 UTC. Lincolnshire County Council awarded the contract to Victory Care Limited on 7 August 2026. The award value is recorded as £0. The award period runs from 6 August 2026 to 31 August 2027, while the tender record gives a contract period from 7 August 2026 to 31 August 2027. The opportunity was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. Evaluation was carried out within the call-off procedure from the framework agreement. One supplier is identified as awarded.

This procurement shows demand from Lincolnshire County Council for supported accommodation for children through its independent placement arrangements. A credible future competitor would need to provide safe, suitable accommodation alongside dependable support for children placed through children’s services, with the operational capacity to serve Lincolnshire and the wider East Midlands. Suppliers should be able to participate in a selective framework call-off route and respond to the council’s placement requirements within that route. The stated suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises indicates that organisations of those types can be relevant participants. Victory Care Limited is identified as the successful supplier, providing a useful benchmark for providers already operating children’s supported accommodation services in the area.
