The procurement method is an open procedure, allowing broad participation, and the contract is anticipated to commence on 1st September 2021, running through to 31st August 2027. This tender represents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and community and voluntary sector organisations that specialise in health and social work services, particularly those focused on children and young people.
