The introduction of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has meant that Kirklees Council and its associated agencies (Contracting Authorities) require support with their Information Governance activities. As such the Contracting Authorities wish to establish a Framework Agreement to access the support it requires, in order to enable the achievement of GDPR compliance across all of the Contracting Authorities.

The agencies associated with the Council include Maintained Schools and Academy Trusts (160+ organisations), Town and Parish Councils (5 organisations) and Housing Service Providers (2 organisations). All of these agencies operate with a significant amount of Personal Data and therefore require support with their GDPR implementation.

The Framework Agreement has 8 Lots, further details can be found in the Service Specification (within Schedule 1 of the Framework Agreement) which is available at the address set out in Section I.1) of this Notice.
