The proposed model incorporated one service specification covering the 6 Lancashire and South Cumbria Places/lots. There was a maximum of 6 contracts (for each of the 6 places) totalling PS500,000 for the full contract length, including the optional extension.

Bidders who submitted a bid over the maximum contract values in the procurement documents, would not achieve the score of a pass. Their bid was to be regarded as non-compliant and be a failed bid and the rest of the bid will be rejected and the scoring questions in each lot were not to be evaluated.

The ITT was live on Monday 4th March 2024 on the Atamis Portal. The deadline for submissions was Monday 8th April 2024 12:00pm Mid-day.
