## Summary

Cornwall Council is seeking suppliers for the "Independent Mobility Assessment (Blue Badge)" contract, which falls under the health and social work services industry category. The procurement process is currently in the Award stage, following a tender initiated on 19th July 2016. The contract is valued at £81,900 and is expected to commence on 1st October 2016, running until 30th September 2019. The assessments will be required for approximately 10 to 20 applications weekly from the local authority, which are subject to fluctuations. Interested suppliers should note that flexibility in handling varying volumes of referrals is crucial.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs), as demonstrated by its suitability criteria. Companies capable of providing independent mobility assessments and adapting their services to accommodate fluctuating demand would be well-positioned to compete. The contract’s open procurement method encourages transparency and gives a fair chance for various suppliers to engage, supporting business growth within the health and social care sector.

## Notice
