Provision of Online Development Portal to Support Women in Talent

Chiefs of Staff have committed to identify a series of programmes of enhanced talent management in order to improve the gender diversity of the pipeline for all females in the Armed Forces. There are several interventions that support the programme including the procurement of a licence and an annual membership to access an online portal that is available to everyone but specifically targets all females at all ranks This product must be an off-the-shelf product that allows access to an online portal that is explicitly designed so that it can be used by everyone at all ranks but is used to specifically target the development of all females regardless of their ranks. To achieve this, the portal must provide the provision for accessing personal development modules that educate and support females through a range of online resources, including leadership training, mentoring frameworks, webinars, podcasts and reading material on a full range of career development topics as well as networking opportunities to hear from and learn from senior female roles models across a range of industries and sectors. This package will provide valuable access to inspirational leaders through webinars and an end-to-end portfolio of leadership education interventions to all female personnel. The provision must be flexible to react to any Defence requirements and including the flexibility to procure the licence for a year but can be reviewed for a further year if required. The supplier will need to be prepared to provide a MOD branded landing page in conjunction with their own sites and pages as an opportunity to create MOD specific content. The supplier must be well established for several years and demonstrate a high-level of proven track record on their success. The supplier will also need to demonstrate that their product has been developed on latest findings and research.
