— Improve access to employment opportunities for disabled people

— Reduce programme cost and procurement cost/timescale,

— Provide a 'right first time' solution to NHC Members

— Demonstrate value for money and reduce the burden on restricted budgets.

It is anticipated that these objectives will be achieved by working together with suppliers and NHC Members throughout the life of the Framework Agreement from its commencement to completion, incorporating supply chain management and fast track methods of programme delivery.
