The procurement is currently at the open tender stage, with submissions due by 31 May 2018. The contract is set to commence on 18 June 2018 and will conclude by 31 December 2018. This opportunity falls under the category of community, social, and personal services, with a total contract value of £122,500. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in youth engagement, social services, and educational support. Suitable bidders would be organisations experienced in providing impartial advice and guidance to young people facing barriers related to education and employment. Companies that can deliver comprehensive support, including coaching and collaboration with local education providers, are encouraged to apply, particularly those able to operate across both northern and southern Warwickshire. ## Notice Groundwork UK is looking for a Programme Partner to deliver BBO Progress to young people aged 15-16 years identified as being at risk of becoming NEET across all Warwickshire districts. Programme Partners are responsible for core programme delivery by deploying Progress Coaches - community-based youth work practitioners with IAG experience who will engage, support and progress a caseload of eligible young people from induction through to sustained onward progression focussed on employment outcomes whilst developing and maintaining appropriate stakeholder relationships. Programme Partners will work closely with Local Authorities (and agencies working on their behalf), schools, Area Behaviour Partnerships and other educational providers/ stakeholders, to identify young people (aged 15) who are at risk of becoming NEET. Following a period of initial engagement, the Programme Partner(s) will then formally enrol participants on leaving school. They will then work with young people for up to 6 months through an intensive, flexible and responsive combination of coaching and support to access (where appropriate) activities, training and support through our network of Specialist Partners, aiming towards engaging the young person in post-16 education, training or employment. Programme Partners will work closely alongside other partners in their area and across the partnership, and will need to work closely with key stakeholders to obtain the required evidence of eligibility and results. The successful tenderer must be committed to working closely in partnership with existing partners, and any proposal received must not impact negatively on referrals currently routed into the programme. Due to the short term nature of this grant agreement, proposals are sought from organisations able to engage young people between June and August 2018, and support them into education, employment or job search by early December 2018. In line with the specification, we are particularly keen to receive submissions from organisations able to provide transition support for vulnerable school leavers. Proposals are sought from organisations with experience in engaging and supporting young people, and engaging education providers and employers including sourcing job/ work placement opportunities. Organisations should be able to provide impartial advice and guidance to young people aged between 15-24 who are facing significant barriers to engaging with education, employment and training. The varied and complex needs of young people will require an accessible, engaging, supportive approach. Support will ideally be provided in a combination of one-to-one and group settings, and will preferably be delivered in local, community settings across the county. The successful tenderer will ideally be able to deliver across the north and south Warwickshire. Further information is available in the Tender Specification. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/64bceca6-b814-4001-8838-3050db93bba8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 11 May 2018 | | Submission deadline | 31 May 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 17 Jun 2018 - 31 Dec 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £122,500 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | GROUNDWORK UK LIMITED | | Locality | BIRMINGHAM | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B1 2RR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG31 Birmingham | | Local authority | Birmingham | | Electoral ward | Ladywood | | Westminster constituency | Birmingham Ladywood | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 98000000 - Other community, social and personal services ## Release History - 11 May 2018 at 09:09 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/64bceca6-b814-4001-8838-3050db93bba8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/64bceca6-b814-4001-8838-3050db93bba8 11th May 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/adeca243-4d1c-427a-9a92-e6d70ec816d1 Tender Specification - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/bffd9fbf-7124-4a4f-a652-7276b77c98b6 Submission Template - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/72079fe8-9c20-4b69-b3f8-b3fa88cf116f Scoring Matrix - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/97b1d714-bc74-417e-9644-93427e100a66 Form of Tender - https://www.groundwork.org.uk/tender-opportunity-bbo-uk Groundwork UK - BBO Progress ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
