Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham City Council is initiating a procurement process for a Flexible Contracting Arrangement (FCA) aimed at securing placements in Residential Children's Homes within the West Midlands. The tender, identified as P0484, focuses on four specific categories: children with Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties (EBD), children with Autistic Spectrum Condition (ASC) and Challenging Behaviour, children with Complex Health Needs, and those needing Specialist Mental Health Services. The procurement is currently at the tender stage, with submissions required by 12:00 hours on 28th September 2018. The contract is expected to commence on 15th December 2018, and run until 15th December 2021.

This tender presents ample opportunities for organisations specialising in social work and related services, particularly those who provide care for children with specific needs. Enterprises that focus on welfare services for children and young people, alongside those offering accommodation and complex health management, would be particularly well-suited to participate. With the FCA open for other public sector bodies to utilise, successful bidders may find extended opportunities to engage with a wider range of local authorities and related entities across the UK.
