This procurement is situated within the health training services industry and is based in Hertfordshire, United Kingdom. Currently in the active stage, the tender is set to close on 30th March 2020, with an estimated contract value of £720,000. The procurement will follow an open procedure, aimed at ensuring broad participation and competitiveness among potential suppliers. This procurement presents significant growth opportunities for businesses, particularly small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in health and social work services. Companies with experience in providing support for the deaf, hard of hearing, or visually impaired individuals will be especially well-suited to compete. The successful contractor will not only contribute to improving community health outcomes but could also potentially expand their service offering across Hertfordshire, fostering long-term relationships with the local authority and community stakeholders. ## Notice PROJECT ON HOLD PLEASE REFER TO THE PROJECT CLARIFICATIONS Additional information: Please note Hertfordshire County Council has worked closely with its districts and partners to create a joint procurement portal called supply Hertfordshire.
