Notice Title
Heritage Sector Workforce Diversity
Notice Description
This invitation is to tender for work towards a Heritage Sector Workforce Diversity project. In line with point 2 on Historic England's Corporate Plan, Inclusion, Diversity, and Equality (IDE), the Inclusion team is developing a suite of resources and interventions for the sector, in particular to fulfil point 2.8 - "Develop a programme of interventions to increase diversity in the sector including building capacity and capability and developing and sharing our evidence and insight." One strand of this is to provide a model, and supporting resources, on how to measure workforce diversity across the sector. Auditing and monitoring workforce diversity is an important tool for IDE. Auditing workforce diversity can highlight where there are gaps in representation and help uncover why these gaps exist - identifying barriers and blockages. It can help prioritise resources towards actions to remove these barriers, and provide development opportunities for organisations to take concrete and specific actions. Working to remove these barriers not only improves inclusivity and accessibility, it also improves working conditions for all staff - as well as service users, visitors, volunteers depending on the type of organisation and its audience or customer base. Additional information: Dear Sir/Madam, Historic England (HE) has updated it's e-tendering system ("In-Tend") which will now be completely separate from the joint system we previously operated with English Heritage. All future Historic England tender opportunities will be published on the updated In-Tend portal but your registration with the English Heritage tendering system will not be affected so please continue to use your existing log on to access their portal. Please disregard this email if you are only interested in tender opportunities from English Heritage. We have created a supplier registration account for your company on our "new" portal because you are registered on the existing joint system. In order to check that your company's account has been registered correctly, and to ensure that you are able to bid for any future HE contracts/tenders, please log into the account we have created for you via the following instructions: 1. Access the HE in-tend portal. Click on this link: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/historicengland/aspx/Home 2. Log in Please try to log in to the portal. If this does not work please email: Procurement@HistoricEngland.org.uk. And we will create a new log in for you. We do apologise for any inconvenience.
