The Authority's key objective is to deliver a commercial solution which achieves the ‘Skills Bootcamps’ policy aims, efficiency and value for money by using industry best practice approaches to training design and delivery which demonstrate benefits in terms of learner participation and outcomes, cost, innovation, operational resilience and meets the timescales for implementation prescribed.
The Authority wishes to procure the Services, the primary purpose of which is to support design, development and implement delivery of Skills Bootcamps across England as defined in the requirements specification.
The Authority intends to award a number of Contracts to the Potential Provider(s) that offers the Most Economically Advantageous Tender in the opinion of the Authority (as determined through the application of the Evaluation Methodology).
This procurement is for seven separate Lots. Potential Providers can bid into more than one Lot but must not attempt to bid for the same Skills Bootcamp in different Lots. If Potential Providers submit bids for the same Skills Bootcamp in different Lots, the Authority reserves the right to use its discretion to decide which Lot to include this bid in and which Lot to exclude it from, as it sees fit.
Note. the Authority will require Potential Providers to complete an SSQ as part of the procurement. ONLY 1 SSQ response is required, whether Potential Providers bid for one Lot or multiple Lots.
