## Summary

The Medway Council is seeking to engage a service provider for the "SEND IASS (2020)" project, which focuses on delivering the Special Educational Needs and Disability Information, Advice & Support Service to children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) in Medway. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with an open procedure method. The tender period will close on 16th August 2019. The total contract value is £360,000, and the service is expected to run from 1st April 2020 to 31st March 2023, specifically in the South East region of the United Kingdom within the Education and Training Services industry category.

This procurement opportunity presents significant potential for business growth, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in education and support services. Businesses capable of offering impartial information and advice about SEND, as well as having a good understanding of the healthcare and social care contexts, would be well-positioned to compete. Successful applicants will play a vital role in enhancing support for children and young people with SEND and their families, thus contributing to community development while also expanding their market presence.
