Summary of the contracting process

The Advice Skills Academy is currently involved in a public procurement process for non-accredited training delivery, with the intention to identify suitable providers from October 2018 to April 2019, under a budget of £10,000. The procurement is being conducted by The Women's Organisation, which is the accountable body for this project funded by the European Social Fund in the North West of England. This process is currently in the Award stage following the tender period that concluded on 10 August 2018. The training procured will address the needs of staff across local Citizens Advice services within the Liverpool City Region (LCR) and aims to improve skills, productivity, and promote equality within the workforce.

This tender presents an opportunity for training organisations, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), to expand their business by providing impactful training services. Companies that specialise in personnel training and education services, particularly those with experience in social sector training, coaching, or mentoring, would find this opportunity well-suited to their capabilities. Engaging with this project could lead to further collaborations with various local partners, enhancing their reach and impact in the training landscape.
