This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in social care services, particularly those that can demonstrate expertise in providing support to vulnerable populations within prison settings. Companies that are registered as Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) or Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to participate in this opportunity, given the council's intention to engage service providers on a call-off basis.
