Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
Bedford Borough Council, a public authority classified under sub-central government, has concluded a procurement process titled "Urgent placement needed for Child - asylum seeker." This falls under the social work and related services category, with the procurement conducted through a direct method, waiving competition due to urgency. The award was finalised on 21 August 2025, with the contract set to run until 22 August 2026.
The successful supplier, Lotus Foster Care Ltd, a large enterprise based in Greenford, has been entrusted with providing the necessary services in the UKH24 region.
