A virtual information session is scheduled for the 6th of August 2026 from 11:00 to 12:00. The estimated date for the publication of the contract notice is 20th September 2026. This procurement process presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in health services and community health services, particularly those experienced in early intervention support for children, young people, and families with neurodevelopmental needs. Companies that can offer innovative solutions tailored to these specific requirements in the SHSCT area stand to benefit from engaging with this project.
