The procurement process is currently at the planning and tender stages, with the tendering period ending on 30th September 2024. The contract, valued at £1.4 million, is to support children and vulnerable adults detained by police or interviewed voluntarily in the UK. The procurement method being used is a competitive procedure with negotiation, and the contract will span approximately 2880 days. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in social work, community action programmes, or youth association services.
