This procurement is identified as CPU 3067 and falls under the guidance and counselling services category. The tender is currently in the Award stage, with a contract period that commenced on 1 May 2019 and extends until 30 April 2023. The estimated annual contract value is £177,340, and this framework agreement will be utilised by nine local authorities across the East Midlands region. The deadline for submission of application forms was 18 January 2019. This procurement opportunity allows businesses, particularly those in the mediation and counselling sectors, to expand their service offerings to local authorities in the East Midlands. Organisations that specialise in providing mediation services for educational settings or those that possess experience with SEND cases would be well-positioned to thrive in this competitive bidding environment. Given the framework's focus on special educational needs, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that can demonstrate relevant expertise are encouraged to engage with this tender. ## Notice Nottingham City Council are seeking a suitably experienced organisation to deliver a disagreement resolution service, mediation advice and a mediation service for children and young people aged 0 - 25 years, with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and their families. Disagreement resolution services are available to parent/carers and young people for disagreements about any aspect of SEND provision.
