About

Coventry City Council is seeking providers for children's residential care placements across the West Midlands region under a re-opened flexible framework that will be accessible to the 14 West Midlands local authorities and trusts and their successors. The framework is intended to be the primary route for sourcing independent-market residential care placements and is being re-opened for a Light Touch Framework under the Procurement Act 2023 (explicitly not as an Open Framework). Tenderers may bid for one or more Lots; providers already on the framework can apply to join additional Lots and/or add further children's residential homes. The framework will be re-opened at least annually and may be re-opened more frequently if the Council reasonably considers more capacity is needed to discharge statutory duties for Children in Care.
