Eastern Region Foster Care Rolling Select List Awarded to Multiple Providers
Awarded 31 Mar 2016
About
Suffolk County Council awarded a contract to Affinity Fostering, Alliance Foster Care Ltd, Archway Care Ltd, Banya Family Placement Agency, Brighter Futures Foster Care, By the Bridge Limited, Caldecott Fostering, Capstone Fostercare SE Ltd, Children Fi, and others for inclusion on the Eastern Region Foster Care Rolling Select List.
The select list, established on 1 October 2013 (and for Essex on 21 November 2013), operates for a period of 4 years until 30 September 2017, with an option to extend for up to 15 months.
It serves four participating authorities: Cambridgeshire County Council, Essex County Council, Suffolk County Council, and Thurrock Council, with a collective annual spend of £38 million for foster care placements, including parent and child placements.
Providers are organized into three tiers based on quality and price evaluations, and placement matching prioritizes the uppermost tier before moving to lower tiers.
The list undergoes annual reviews, with the next review on 1 April 2016, allowing new entrants to join and existing providers to be re-evaluated.
