Summary of the contracting process

Newcastle City Council has successfully completed a procurement process titled "Independent Allegation Support for Foster Carers," under the CPV classification for social work and related services. The tender, which followed a negotiated procedure under the threshold, aimed to provide independent allegation support to foster carers. The contract was awarded to Foster Talk Limited, with a total value of £30,000. The procurement process was in the award stage as of 30th October 2024. The contract period will span from 1st May 2024 to 31st October 2024, covering the United Kingdom as the primary delivery location.
