This tender is classified under the "Justice services" industry category and involves services within the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is currently at the tender stage, having been published on 3rd October 2025, and the tender period concludes on 30th December 2025. The procurement method employed is a selective competitive procedure with negotiation, above the threshold value, with a contract period set from 1st January 2026 to 1st October 2029.
