In plain English

The London Borough of Newham is setting up a rolling list of approved suppliers for children's care, accommodation and support services for looked after children, care leavers and young people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. This notice reopens Lot 2 (Round 10), which covers children's homes regulated by Ofsted, the government's social care regulator.

What the buyer wants

• Bids from organisations or consortia with relevant experience, submitted in response to the invitation to tender (ITT) for Lot 2 • Provision of children's homes regulated by Ofsted, for looked after children, care leavers and young people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness • Applications can be submitted while the round is open, and the council will process them when the round closes

Requirements

What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice gives no financial thresholds or specific certifications, but Lot 2 is for Ofsted-regulated children's homes and asks for relevant experience, so a small business without existing regulated children's home provision would most likely be ruled out.

Always check the tender documents.
