In the interest of transparency and so as not to inadvertently waste anyone’s time, interested economic operators are advised that part of the Selection Criteria to be used in our upcoming Procurement activity will be to:
1. Confirm your Ofsted Registration for the Supported Accommodation (England) Regulations 2023. Please note, CQC registration is not accepted.
2. Confirm that you have, or will have, provision active within the prescribed geographical location (within a 20-mile radius from PE2 8TY) on or before the 1st April 2024, providing addresses for those properties within this location. Note, it is a requirement that properties are recorded within the Organisation’s Ofsted Registration. Local Authorities are required to take steps to secure, so far as is reasonably practicable, sufficient accommodation for children in care within their local area. This enables children and young people to maintain education, training and employment, contact with families and friends and access to their local communities.
These criteria will be evaluated on a PASS/FAIL basis. Interested economic operators who do not satisfy these criteria during our upcoming Procurement Activity will not be successful.
