## Summary

The public procurement process for the project titled "RFE - Supported accommodation agency for child placement" was managed by Luton Council, a sub-central government public authority located in Luton, UK. This procurement was conducted under the legal framework of the UKPGA 2023/54. The industry category is Health and Social Work Services, with the related location being the UKH21 region in the United Kingdom. Initially, the procurement method was direct, classified as "Below threshold - without competition", and followed a "lightTouch" special regime. The procurement process has reached the contract termination stage as of 10th November 2025, with the contract status recorded as “terminated” because it naturally expired on 28th August 2025. The contract, however, was originally signed on 20th January 2025 and had a gross value of £280,291.20.

This tender provided significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social care services, specifically targeting agencies capable of managing child placements and fostering care environments. The procurement method indicated a direct award, highlighting an opportunity for established entities with experience in similar council partnerships to secure a contract without entering a competitive bidding process. Large-scale organisations, like Sublime Care Solutions Limited, the supplier for this contract, are well-suited for such opportunities, especially those capable of handling comprehensive service requirements across specified regions like UKH21.
