GLA 82520 Civic Futures Fellowship Programme (Years 4 and 5)

This contract is reserved for suppliers based within Greater London under PPN 11/20. Only suppliers based in Greater London Area can bid for this project.

GLA is commissioning a partner to deliver the 4th and 5th round of the Civic Futures fellowship programme for 2023/24 and 2024/25 with possible extension of one additional year. The 'Civic Futures' fellowship has been delivered for the last three years.

The Mayor recognises the importance of civil society in supporting communities, delivering services and making London the thriving vibrant place to live.

Civil society also known as Civic society is represented by the people serving their communities, by the city's highly effective activists and organisers, its radical artists and curators, as well as by the individuals and networks exploring new ways of caring for each other and the world around them.

London's civil society has a wealth of assets, experience, and networks.

The programme will work with communities, civil society, and others to build a collaboration and partnership working between the GLA and civil society enabling GLA to improve outcomes for Londoners, including: • Increased confidence, capabilities and skills for London's civic and regional public sector leaders to make a transition to a better future • Improved relationships and systems for collaboration between and within London's civic ecosystem

How to apply for the project: TfL have recently switched to a new sourcing system, SAP Ariba, meaning that TfL's processes are now different to those that suppliers may be familiar with. The following instructions explain this new system and provide guidance on how interested parties will be able to communicate with TfL.

To log in to SAP Ariba (this is to log in only and not to register): https://service.ariba.com/Supplier.aw

To register: Please use TfL specific Ariba registration page below: https://s1-eu.ariba.com/Sourcing/Main/ad/selfRegistration?realm=TfL

After registration: To participate in the tender: Register Interest for the event by contacting (emailing) the Commercial contact listed on Find a Tender/ Contract Finder posting. Note: The Ariba system is not automated, therefore, once you have registered (or are registered already) your business on Ariba you must email the above contact. Registering business on Ariba is not same as registering interest for the project. The above commercial contact will have to manually give your registered business access to the tender.
