PFD Monitor interpretation

Embed agreed intervention, support and caseload timeframes in the revised service specification for future procurement.

Verbatim wording from the response

“While the current service specification does not explicitly define timeframes for intervention, ongoing support, or case allocation, Dyfodol and CTM work to mutually agreed timeframes that are reviewed monthly. These timeframes will be formally embedded into the revised service specification as part of the future procurement process, once the existing contract expires.”
