## Summary

Denbighshire County Council, in partnership with Conwy, Wrexham, and Flintshire County Borough Councils, is leading a tender process under the Connect to Work North Wales Programme. The objective is to establish contracts within the Supported Employment Quality Framework (SEQF) to assist individuals with disabilities in obtaining sustainable local employment. These services will be delivered across North Wales with a focus on personal development and career guidance. The tendering process is active, with a submission deadline of 20th July 2026 and an award decision expected by 12th August 2026. The contracts, which are expected to commence on 21st August 2026 and run until 31st March 2030, will be procured via an open procedure with a focus exclusively on service quality, as evidenced by the 100% quality evaluation criteria.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in employment services, particularly those with expertise in supporting individuals with disabilities. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and ventures within the voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) sectors are particularly encouraged to participate, as the tender's suitability criteria include provisions for these groups. The programme's focus on local delivery means that businesses positioned within North Wales or those capable of establishing a local presence could benefit greatly from this initiative, helping to enhance their service portfolios while contributing to the socio-economic development of the region. The procurement process allows electronic submissions via the Proactis platform, facilitating easy access for interested firms.
