Procurement Information
The Shared Accommodation contract is due to expire on the 31 March 2023. KCC has a statutory responsibility to safeguard and promote the welfare of Kent Children in Care and ensure best value for money it spends on behalf of the Kent population. It also has a statutory responsibility to ensure there is safe and sufficient accommodation for Children in Care. There is no provision in the contract to extend. Following full analysis of the provision data, market position and engagement with key stakeholders, a Business Case and Commissioning Plan were developed and were due to be presented to the Children, Young People and Education Cabinet Committee in January 2022. However, the announcement by Ofsted in December 2021 to require regulation in a previously unregulated accommodation market has significantly impacted the proposed direction of travel.
