The tender is in the "Tender" stage with key deadlines including an enquiry period ending on 16 June 2025 and a submission deadline of 23 June 2025. The procurement method is an open competition, and it is intended for services below the threshold as outlined by Northern Irish devolved regulations. The contract value is set at a gross amount of GBP 204,000, with a net value of GBP 170,000. The contract period is set to start on 1 September 2025 and potentially extend to 31 August 2028, with renewal options available.

This tender allows businesses to align with government needs, potentially fostering long-term partnerships and stability in revenue streams.
