Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council, a public authority located in Winchester, has completed a procurement process titled "Independent Fostering Agencies (call off) - Children with Disabilities / Complex Healthcare Needs". The primary focus is on commissioning independent fostering agencies to support children with various needs, including those with disabilities and complex healthcare requirements. This procurement falls under the services industry category with the CPV code 85000000 for health and social work services and operates primarily in the UKJ3 region. Initiated as a tender and concluded with awards, the contractual engagements were formalised on 28th March 2026, with the service contracts commencing on 1st April 2026 and potentially extending up to 31st March 2034. The procurement employed a selective method under a framework agreement, and included a unique 'lightTouch' regime to allow for continuous supplier engagement, fostering a competitive environment.

This procurement process presents robust business growth opportunities, particularly for independent fostering agencies that are either existing providers or seeking to enter the social care market. Both large-scale organisations and SMEs can benefit, particularly those that specialise in health and social work services. New suppliers can join the framework or existing suppliers can bid for additional lots, making it appealing for agencies looking to expand their footprint in the fostering sector. The potential for contracts worth up to £8,000,000, subject to placement needs, offers significant business potential, while supporting societal contributions by enhancing foster care provisions for vulnerable children.
