Purpose

The HAF programme is funded via grant from the
Department for Education. Eligibility of the programme is means
tested. The current system for ensuring that eligible children
access the programme is no longer fit for use.

We would like to purchase a subscription for the HAF SEND and
Wraparound Booking and Data Solution available from Eequ Limited.
This is a booking system designed specifically for this purpose.
The system is used by 19 Local Authorities. Whilst there are other
systems available, none would be compatible with the current
programme in Oldham. Based on cost comparison and labour time
implications we believe the Eequ software would provide greater
value for money than the current system.
