The new Framework will provide employability and vocational training to complement current employability and skills support provisions. It will offer upskilling and progression opportunities for both those seeking employment and those in employment but facing uncertainty in their work or in-work poverty. Through the agreement established by the Framework (the “Framework Agreement”), CCP aims to provide funding to and work alongside organisations and we see the future relationship with successful framework providers as a partnership rather than that of a traditional funder/grant recipient. ## Lots (9) ### Lot 1: Hospitality - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ### Lot 2: Health and Social Care - **Lot id:** `2` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ### Lot 3: Early Learning and Childcare - **Lot id:** `3` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ### Lot 4: Manufacturing/Transport and Distribution - **Lot id:** `4` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ### Lot 5: Construction - **Lot id:** `5` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ### Lot 6: Digital and Creative - **Lot id:** `6` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ### Lot 7: Business and Financial Services - **Lot id:** `7` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ### Lot 8: Retail - **Lot id:** `8` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ### Lot 9: Miscellaneous - **Lot id:** `9` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 80000000 - **Delivery regions:** UKM - **Description:** The Capital City Partnership (“CCP”) is currently working on a new Network of Employability Support and Training (NEST) Vocational Training Framework programme (“the Framework”) on behalf of the six local authorities under the Edinburgh and South-Eas... ## Provenance and Official Sources - **Official Notice:** [Find a Tender notice](/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.find-tender.service.gov.uk%2FNotice%2F029057-2021) - **Last Source Update:** 2021-11-22T15:15:02.000Z - **This document generated:** 2026-10-22T21:27:40.245Z - **Machine API:** https://tenderline.uk/api/public/tenders/ocds-h6vhtk-02f8f0
