Notice Information

Notice Title

Apprenticeship Provider Framework

Notice Description

The London Borough of Camden seeks to arrange for the provision of apprenticeship training for people newly recruited to, or already working in, the Council and our community schools. The apprenticeship training of these people would be paid from a single apprenticeship levy account. On occasion the Council may work in partnership with other Local Authorities in London to deliver apprenticeships and on those occasions we will permit those Local Authorities to access this framework. The estimated Contract Value is the total potential maximum value over the life of the framework agreement, the contracts will be subject to activity/demand levels and therefore the Council does not guarantee this level of spend. The maximum price for each Apprenticeship is limited to the Apprenticeship Levy Cap for that Apprenticeship. The framework contracts will be for a period of 4 years. Bidders should note that being awarded a framework contract gives no guarantee of work, and individual 'call-off' contracts will be put in place for each apprenticeship required during the framework term. Individual call-off contracts will be for the duration of the Apprenticeship. The framework will be divided into four Lots as follows: Lot 1 - Business and Finance Lot 2 - Construction and Engineering Lot 3 - Health and Education Lot 4 - Information Technology Full details of the service requirements are set out in the Specification.
