What the buyer wants

Requirements
Named in the buyer's notice:
- Safeguarding Trained
What could rule a small business out: The notice requires a multidisciplinary clinical workforce led by Qualified Public Health Nurses and a countywide service with an estimated value of about £25.3 million, which would most likely rule out small businesses that cannot provide qualified clinical staff or the capacity to deliver a contract of this scale.
