Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Southend City Council is seeking to establish a framework for Children's Residential and Accommodation services through an open tender procedure, classified under Health and Social Work services (CPV 85000000). This procurement process, currently in the tender stage, offers two lots: Residential Homes and Supported Accommodation. The framework has an estimated value of GBP 105,000,000 and covers services to be delivered across England. The important dates to note are the tender submission deadline on 10th February 2025, and the contract period starting on 1st May 2025, ending on 30th April 2028.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in providing residential and supported accommodation services for children. While the tender is open and aims to establish a comprehensive framework, it's particularly beneficial for larger enterprises due to its scale and the specific exclusion of suitability for SMEs and VCSEs. Companies with experience in health and social work services, especially those operating within or looking to expand into the English market, are well-suited to compete for these contracts and leverage them for substantial business growth.
