Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children (UASC) Support Services

Note: Any previous expression of interest or signed NDA associated with Project 19042 will need to be renewed and previous participation in market engagement will not result in automatic inclusion in this new preliminary market engagement and any subsequent tender process. It is our intention to invite those suppliers that express an interest in this procurement to complete an initial Supplier Questionnaire, subject to parties signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement. Following receipt of responses, the Authority will decide whether to conduct further market engagement activities. These may include an Industry Day, one-to-one engagement sessions with prospective bidders, or the issuing of clarifying questions to suppliers. How to Express Interest 1.
