What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Combined Authority (CA) is advertising a tender on behalf of West Yorkshire Police (WYP) for the provision of Role Actors to support their investigative interview training with a view to awarding a contract for an initial period of 3 years with options to extend up to 2 x 12 months.

Predominantly the specialist courses are delivered at Wakefield West Yorkshire. WYP deliver a number of courses where they require the services of Role Actors to help deliver aspects of that training. It is critical that the training is as real life as possible and therefore crucial that experienced and believable actors are able to perform the roles. A diverse range of training courses will be delivered throughout the contract duration and WYP are seeking a supplier to provide a pool of suitable role actors to assist with delivery of these courses.

It is a condition of the contract that full security clearance Non Police Personnel Vetting NPPV Level 1, is in place prior to award of the contract.
