## Summary

Lincolnshire County Council commissioned support in a residential children’s home through its independent placement arrangements. The service is for children placed in residential care and falls within health and social work services. The recorded delivery location is Lincoln, Lincolnshire. This is a children’s residential care requirement, rather than a general community support or personal services contract.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to Oasis Adolescent Services Ltd. The award date was 14 August 2026. The contract runs from 14 August 2026 to 31 August 2027. The award records a value of £0, so it does not establish a usable contract price or the financial scale of the placement. This was a selective call-off from a framework agreement, following a deadline of 10 November 2025 at 12 noon. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No evaluation criteria or lot breakdown are recorded.

For providers of residential children’s care, this award is evidence that Lincolnshire County Council uses its independent placement arrangements to source support in a residential children’s home. A credible competitor for this specific requirement would need to operate or provide access to a suitable children’s residential home and have the staffing and service capability to support children in residential placements. The selected provider was recorded as a large supplier, but the procurement was also marked suitable for smaller businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises. Providers in those groups may therefore have relevant credentials, though the award does not describe specific qualifications, accreditations, staffing levels or experience requirements. The route was a selective framework call-off, so suppliers seeking comparable work should be positioned to participate through the council’s independent placement arrangements.
