Typical placement framework
Social care is one of the highest-volume procurement categories in UK local government, covering adult care, children's services, domiciliary care, residential placements, supported living and reablement. Most contracts are awarded via Dynamic Purchasing Systems or framework agreements managed at council or regional level. CQC registration and quality ratings are usually decisive.

CQC rating is gating
"Good" or "Outstanding" CQC ratings are usually a hard requirement. Sustaining and improving your rating is the single highest-leverage thing for bid success.
