The contractual model, particularly between a concession contract approach in which end users are charged by the Contractor, or a funded model in which the Department provides a fee to the Contractor, or a hybrid of both; 2. Early thinking to our specification; what could be improved, what would look attractive to prospective Contractors and how risk could be managed during the Contract's life; 3. The duration of a future contract. The above list is not exhaustive. The Department will arrange a virtual engagement session to be held on Nov 28 and like to last for up to a maximum of x2 hours. A Teams link will be shared 24 hours in advance, alongside a draft copy of our initial specification - please note the draft specification is a first draft and subject to extensive change based on feedback and further internal development. The engagement session will involve an open Q&A format and will be led by DfE policy and commercial. A maximum of x3 attendees per prospective Contractor may attend, and questions may be submitted prior to the engagement session. The Department may follow on with a survey after the engagement session. To register your interest, please email Richard Mawer and provide confirmation of the name and email addresses of attendees.
