Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process, initiated by Tower Hamlets, pertains to the "CS5638: Befriending Short Break Services Framework." This contract falls under the health and social work services category and focuses on providing befriending services for children and young people aged 5 to 18 with specific health needs, including those with Autistic Spectrum Disorder and complex health challenges. The contract, which has a total estimated value of £800,000 and an annual value of £200,000, was signed on the 2nd of March 2021, following an open procurement method with awards to multiple suppliers, including active providers such as Apasen and Barnardo Services Ltd.
