The London Borough of Hackney is inviting tenders from experienced and qualified providers to procure a framework of providers to provide Special Educational Needs Supported Internship placements for young people in the borough.

A framework agreement will be awarded to up to 3 providers(s). The framework will be established for an initial duration of 24 months, with the option to extend for up to 24 further months in annual increments at the Council's discretion. The contract is anticipated to begin on 1st October 2021 after an initial implementation period. The estimated value of the framework is approximately £832,500 per annum, equating to £1,665,000 over the 2 years and up to £3,330,000 if it is extended for a further 2 years (in annual increments)
