This initiative is aimed at delivering tailored support to 16-24-year-old participants who are not in education, employment, or training (NEET). The procurement, classified under the education and training services industry, employs an open procedure method. The tender period concluded on 2 January 2020, and the contract period runs from 9 March 2020 to 31 May 2020. It has a minimum value of £100,000 and a total estimated value of £700,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for organisations aiming to support youth employment initiatives. Businesses that focus on education and training services, particularly those experienced in working with NEET populations, would be well-suited to compete. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to apply, as the procurement process is designed to be inclusive and open to a wide range of service providers, including those based outside of County Durham. ## Notice DurhamWorks is looking to develop a Provider Panel which can deliver tailored bespoke support to 16-24 year old participants who are Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET)/unemployed with a specific focus of progressing participants into paid employment. Other outcomes may be fundable, these will be defined in each competed call-off. Providers may be organisations registered outside County Durham and the opportunities for progression can be outside of County Durham with suitable transport links. This initial opening of the Provider Panel is for Providers to gain membership to the Provider Panel only. This Provider Panel offers no form of exclusivity or guaranteed work. Competed Call-Offs will be released to the successful Panel Members. DurhamWorks has been created as the vehicle to deliver the learning, training, employment, support, and development activities which are funded under European Social Fund (ESF) and Youth Employment Initiative (YEI) funding.
