## Description
This message is intended to raise awareness of an upcoming opportunity to supply adult skills provision and skills sector services.
In week commencing 30 May 2022, Leeds City Council intend go out to tender for non-exclusive contracts to multiple suppliers for skills provision under 3-year £0 value contracts to pre-approved supplier on the Employment and Skills DPS (contract id 47772 on the Mercell YORTender platform).
The Employment and Skills DPS mini-competition is for the following skills provision and services:
•	delivery of Adult Education Budget (AEB) funded community learning provision 
•	sector based vocational training, (not apprenticeships)
•	skills services to support and develop adult skills provision.
Background
Each academic year thousands of Leeds citizens aged 19+ re-engage into learning and subsequently progress into employment and / or further learning. It is essential that we continue the scale, breadth and quality of provision and that we remain leaders in the Leeds economy. We are therefore keen to engage with a broad skills supplier base and the Employment and Skills DPS mini-competition will provide you with the opportunity to outline your skills provision.
The 3-year £0 value framework provides no guarantee of work throughout the duration of the contract. As and when services are required the programme manager will contact you to confirm the services required which will be finalised through a call off order from the contract. This approach enables is an agile approach in an ever-changing environment resulting in a responsive programme ensuring residents needs are met.
To be in a position to bid in this opportunity you must be a pre-approved supplier on the Employment and Skills DPS in one or more categories 2, 3, 6 or 10. If your organisation is not already a pre-approved supplier you have the opportunity to apply join the DPS in one or more of those categories before the mini-competition is published.
As a DPS pre-approved supplier you will receive an invitation through YORTender when the opportunity goes live with details on how to apply.
