This service falls within the Health Services category, specifically targeting family support for autism, and is encompassed by the CPV code 85100000. Situated in the UKD4 region, the procurement was achieved through a direct award, bypassing the standard provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The contract is valued at £286,728, with services commencing on 1st April 2025 and concluding on 31st March 2027. The procurement stage is at the award phase as of the latest update.
