Description
WMCA is establishing a suite of Adult Education Budget Service Contracts through this procurement exercise, with a total estimated value of up to £4m for the initial 15 month period. It is WMCA's intention that contracts awarded will initially be awarded for 15 months (academic year 2019 to 2020), with an option to extend for a further year up to July 2022. The value of the contract extension is still to be confirmed.
Lot Structure WMCA has split this procurement activity into three Lots:
Lot 4 - Support for those in Employment Lot 4 includes: - Focus on new learning to support career progression - A flexible adult offer to enable those who seek to re-train and up-skill - Particular focus but not exclusive to those in low-paid, low-skilled and insecure jobs - Level 2, 3 and 4 - Funding subsidies available to support L3 and L4 - Pre-apprenticeship provision that supports uptake of Apprenticeships
Lot 5 - Birmingham Commonwealth Games Lot 5 includes: - Particular focus on young people aged between 19 and 30 and unemployed adults aged 30+ through level 3 provision - Technical skills at level 3 supporting event management, digital marketing, hospitality, sports coaching and team leading.
Lot 6 - Coventry City of Culture Focus on creative, digital and tourism to prepare those individuals not working in the city least likely to have the skills, confidence or access to the programmes the city of culture trust, will be running (including volunteering, apprenticeships and events-based jobs). The development delivered through these programmes should move individual to the point where they are able to access and compete for opportunities created as a result of the City of Culture. One of the potential outcomes that individuals may be prepared to access is the "city hosts" programme - a crew of 5,000 individuals trained to provide the best possible welcome to the city for visitors. This, alongside apprenticeships and events related jobs in hospitality, production, sales, customer service, event management, security and tourism sectors are the type of opportunities that people should be supported to access.
Bidders can submit proposals for as many lots as they wish. For completeness, it should be noted that the lots in this tender opportunity are listed from 4 - 6. The reason for the lot numbering is to follow on from the award of lots 1-3 from the first AEB tender round that was undertaken in 2019.
