Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "CCS034 Children in Care Provision (D2N2) - Fostering Placements" is managed by Derbyshire County Council alongside Derby City, Nottinghamshire County, and Nottingham City Councils. This opportunity focuses on fostering placements for children in care within the D2N2 area, which encompasses Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire regions in the UK, aiming to provide stable and local placements. The procurement method used is an open procedure, which includes an open framework agreement envisioned to accommodate evolving capacity over the term, planned to start on 1st April 2026 and potentially extend until 2034. This process has progressed past the award stage as of January 2026, and the contract is expected to commence on 1st April 2026, marking the transition from the previous framework which began in 2020.

This tender represents substantial opportunities for businesses involved in fostering services, particularly those that are OFSTED-registered. With a significant contract value of $150 million GBP, both large organisations and SMEs are encouraged to participate. The procurement encourages a collaborative approach, allowing businesses to engage in long-term and stable contracts, contributing to sustainable growth in the fostering sector. Businesses capable of delivering quality health and social work services are particularly well-positioned to benefit, as the framework aims to foster local investments and enhance placement provisions throughout the participating councils' territories.

The event will be held online, via Teams. Please RSVP by 28th March 2025 to andrea.mccloskey@derbyshire.gov.uk and a Microsoft teams invite will be sent to your email address. The event is about the New D2N2 Children in Care framework - Fostering lots. The new D2N2 Children in Care framework is due to start on 1 April 2026 and so this event will focus on further scoping and shaping of the new framework, and reflect on the current D2N2 Children in Care framework. The event is for providers who provide OFSTED registered Fostering provision for Children in Care within the Derby City, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Nottingham City boundaries (and neighbouring areas). In order to be eligible to attend the event, OFSTED registrations must either be complete now and the service in place, or for the OFSTED registration to be completed by August 2025 at the latest (as providers without this will not be eligible to apply for the framework). There will be a face to face event held on Friday 4th April 2025, 10am-1pm for residential providers. This decision was based on initial feedback from the Soft Market Testing issued via Pro Contract in February, where preferred online was identified for fostering provision and preferred face to face was identified for residential provision.
