The estimated contract value for the 12-month period is £76,000, focusing on the legal services industry as classified under CPV code 79100000. This tender presents a significant opportunity for legal service providers, particularly small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in immigration advice. Companies with expertise in providing OISC-registered immigration services will be well-suited to compete, as the contract entails managing a caseload of families while offering ongoing support to the Newham Multi-Agency Safeguarding Hub. Furthermore, successful bidders can expect to develop valuable relationships within the community, potentially opening doors for further engagements in public service contracts. ## Notice Provision of high quality immigration advice and services to families with No Recourse to Public Funds Organisations are invited to respond to this questionnaire for the provision of high quality immigration advice and services to NRPF families who are destitute or at risk of being destitute.
