## Summary

Islington Council has awarded a contract for the Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities Information, Advice & Support Service (SENDIASS), valued at £870,000 over 60 months. This service will offer free, impartial, confidential, and accessible information, advice, and support regarding Special Educational Needs (SEN) and disabilities (SEND) in areas including education, health, and social care. The procurement process followed an open procedure under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, and the contract was awarded based on the Most Economically Advantageous Tender (MEAT) criteria, with an emphasis on quality and social value. The contract will commence on 1 April 2025 and run until 31 March 2030.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in education and training services, and specifically those involved in welfare services for children and young people or providing guidance services. Despite the contract being awarded to London Disability Network London (LDN London), companies with similar expertise might benefit from understanding the procurement criteria and enhancing their offerings for future opportunities. Organisations capable of delivering high-quality, socially valuable services in the SEND sector are well-suited to compete in this niche market.
