The session will give an overview of the requirements and invite feedback (commercially confidential where appropriate) to assist shaping the service offering from the most innovative solutions in the market to ensure maximum value for the nation throughout the life of the framework. The initial webinar will take place at 11am on 6 November 2025. Further sessions with interested parties and more in depth market engagement sessions will follow.
