A dedicated project management resource will be identified to act as the single point of contact and escalation point during the delivery of the project.
Service Review meetings are required quarterly in the first year of the contract reducing to every 6 months in years 2 and 3. Contract Review Meeting required prior to further 3-year extension.
The Potential Provider must ensure suitable training is included within their proposed bid.
