The contracting authority is experiencing significant challenges in securing appropriate residential placements for children with complex needs.

The Contract will be let for an initial term of two (2) years with an optional 12-month extension, subject to supplier performance, funding and at the full discretion of the contracting authority. Note, the estimated contract total value stated within this contract award notice is based on the initial term of the Contract plus the optional 12-month extension. Accordingly, the contracting authority is incorporating a standstill period for eight (8) working days, commencing the day on which this contract award notice has been published.
