Brief

This is a waiver opportunity for bespoke British Sign Language (BSL) interpreting services provided by BSL assist Ltd. The service is partly funded through the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) Access to Work programme, which supports disabled people in employment by providing funding for specialist services. Suppliers should note this is a waiver procurement, meaning the contract is being awarded to a specific provider without open competition. The interpreting services cover tailored BSL interpretation to meet individual client needs, with financial support available through the government's Access to Work scheme to help eligible disabled workers access workplace communication support.
