## Summary

The procurement process led by Southampton City Council concerns a framework agreement for children's residential care services, including planned residential care and crisis care, among others. The total estimated value ranges between £1 billion to £2 billion, though exact spending can't be guaranteed. This framework is accessible to various councils across the South of England, with the tender phase concluding on 20th August 2021. Various local authorities such as Bournemouth, Brighton and Hove, and Bracknell Forest are involved, with the primary classification of the services falling within health and social work services (CPV code 85000000).

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in children's residential care services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete, given the estimated annual spend and the potential for long-term contracts through the framework, which will be reopened yearly. Companies that can demonstrate quality care and educational support for children, as well as the ability to handle crisis interventions, will have a competitive edge in this procurement process.
