The West Midlands Commissioning Hub and Coventry City Council are looking at the retendering of the West Midlands Residential Framework. As you are aware the current framework is led/hosted by Birmingham Children's Trust. Coventry City Council will be taking over as the lead/host for the retender of this Framework where it is scheduled to be released before Christmas.

Prior to the tender release The West Midlands Commissioning Hub and Coventry City Council will host a Provider briefing event lasting a maximum of 90 minutes at 2pm on Tuesday 3rd December 2024 via Microsoft Teams.

The session will set out the plans and timeframe for the retendering of the framework including areas of the current contract that will be changing; revision of the Lots; and new pricing arrangements. The sessions will last for approximately 60 minutes and there will be an extra 30 minutes at the end for providers to ask questions, raise issues etc.

CSW-JETS is a sub-regional e-tendering portal run by In-tend. Since February 2010, Coventry; Solihull; Warwickshire; Nuneaton and Bedworth; Rugby alongside other local district Councils have been working together as a shared procurement service. In conjunction with Solihull Community Housing, we have joined together to bring you a collaborative E-Tendering portal.

CSW-JETS enables us to advertise our opportunities across all authorities through the same system. This means that there is a single point of contact for procurement in the sub-region so you only have to register once to receive notifications for all authorities. Registering on the portal will make it easier for local suppliers to find, respond to and be alerted to tender opportunities.

Registration is free, and takes just a few minutes. When complete, you will be able to express interest in any of the Councils'/Authorities' opportunities when they are made available including this tender. In addition, we will be able to access your details whenever we have a requirement, and you may then be invited to tender or quote for work.

Once you are registered and log in to the system you will be able to locate the tender opportunity, express interest and access the documentation.
