Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Lincolnshire County Council is seeking independent placement services for its Children’s Services, through a call-off from its Open Select List for independent placements. The requirement falls within health and social work services and covers placements arranged for children by the council. The listed delivery location is Lincoln, Lincolnshire.

The buyer invited offers through a selective call-off from a framework agreement, under the light-touch regime. The deadline for submissions was 10 November 2025 at 12:00 UTC. The stated contract period runs from 24 April 2026 to 31 August 2027. The procurement identifies no separate lots or evaluation criteria.

The opportunity is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. It is relevant to providers able to deliver independent placements for children for a local authority. Suppliers should assess whether their placement services fit the council’s Children’s Services needs and whether they can undertake work in Lincolnshire. The requirement is a call-off from an existing Open Select List, so it is aimed at providers participating in that arrangement.
