## Summary

The London Borough of Waltham Forest is seeking proposals for its Digital Inclusion Strategy and Delivery Plan, aimed at enhancing digital skills across the borough. This procurement process, classified under computer support and consultancy services, involves an open tender that concluded on 15th November 2021. The awarded contract has a total value of £28,487.50, with the project period running from 8th December 2021 to 8th March 2022. The initiative seeks to engage with various stakeholders, including public, private, and third sector organisations, to develop a sustainable strategy following comprehensive research and data analysis.

This tender presents a robust opportunity for businesses specialising in consultancy, digital education, and research and development services. Companies that provide expertise in digital inclusion, equal opportunities consultancy, and adult education are particularly well-suited to compete. The project also encourages participation from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), fostering a competitive environment that can enhance service provision and resource maximisation in digital skills training.

## Notice

This is a request for a quotation from suppliers to design a new multi-year digital inclusion strategy and delivery programme which can be funded externally and internally, with specific enhancement to our existing digital skills provision which can be delivered over several years, starting in 2022-23. Waltham Forest Council is seeking a new strategy and delivery plan for increasing digital inclusion in the borough. Creating this will involve primary and secondary research engagement with council staff, residents, organizations across the public, third and private sector, data analysis, and deep expertise and knowledge of 'what works'. It needs to map existing provision, as well as telling us how we can make our work in this area sustainable, how we can maximize our use of resources and obtain new funding.
