Scope

Reference

C11812

Description

The service area has explored alternatives, however given the niche nature of the training platform and the specialised requirements of the fostering service, other options are limited. Building a new platform internally is deemed resource intensive at this time but will be explored further in 12 months. Retaining the current incumbent provider is the most feasible and low risk option.
