Issue details

Holiday Activities and Food HAF Booking System

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.
