What is being bought

Published requirement description

Blackpool Council is looking to appoint a framework panel which we can use to support the Multiply Initiative.

Multiply was announced in the Autumn Spending Review and in the Levelling Up White Paper – being part of a range of initiatives that aim to boost adult skills. The programme is for 19+ adults who do not have a GSCE at Grade 4 (or equivalent) and aims to help people improve their ability to understand and use maths in daily life, home, and work – from household finances, to helping children with homework, to making more sense of the facts in the media and improving employability / job prospects.

Published award criteria (3)
  • quality: 50%
  • social value: 20%
  • price: 30%
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
