This procurement falls under the industry category of daycare services with additional classifications such as child daycare services and daycare services for disabled children and young people. The services will be provided within the region of England, United Kingdom.

The procurement method involves a competitive call-off process, and the estimated total value for the duration, including extensions, is £1.8 million.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in caregiving and support services for children and young people, especially those with disabilities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, particularly those adept at providing community-based activities, individual support, and family support at home. By securing a position on this accreditation list, businesses can expand their service offerings and potentially access a steady stream of governmental contracts over the next five to nine years, thereby fostering business growth and stability. The initiative promotes respite care, positive activities, and skill development aligned with the short breaks' agenda, emphasising the importance of experienced and skilled service providers.
