This tender presents opportunities for businesses, particularly those in the social services and related sectors, to engage in contracts that enhance their service offerings and expand their portfolio. Businesses that are well-suited to compete include small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in social protection services, consulting firms, and organizations with expertise in external reviews.
