## Notice

In respect of the above Leeds Trinity University seeks advice from independent experts/authorities/market participants with a view to developing the scope and specifications needed to plan and conduct its procurement procedures. The primary objective of this consultation is to refresh our understanding of: 1. The size and characteristics of the supply market 2. The appropriate specification for the service, including service levels and KPIs. 3. The likely costs, and how these are constituted. Our current understanding of appropriate requirements is set out below. We will be interested to hear from providers that meet or exceed these requirements, or who are able to discuss aspects of the specification that are superfluous, inappropriate, or even omitted, with a view to improving student experience. The University envisages demand of at least 100 SpLD assessments per academic year, and requests indicative pricing thereof.
