This initiative is rooted in the labour market analysis across the AMLAG Core Areas, with a significant engagement end date set for 8 June 2019. The tender process shall incorporate innovative partnerships with housing associations, with potential funding allocations indicated for skills development and self-employment pathways. The procurement adheres to a planning status, implying active outreach and stakeholder engagement to refine project proposals. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses aiming to contribute to social development, especially those specialising in training services, community engagement, or mental health support. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are particularly encouraged to participate by delivering projects that demonstrate creative solutions to local needs. By capitalising on funding for collaborative projects, these businesses can help foster sustainable growth within the community, while simultaneously enhancing their visibility and impact across the AMLAG region. ## Notice AMLAG02 Working with Housing Providers to support their tenants across the AMLAG Core Areas Previous work across AMLAG, including the current SMART Tenants project, has provided good learning opportunities and evidence for projects that can have the most impact. Income, employment, health & disability, education & skills, and living environment are all acute issues in this area as is fuel poverty and the increase of mental health issues. An opportunity exists to provide soft skills training, accredited training as well as sessions that enable people to be ready to start their own business. Skills Development: Applicants will present projects that demonstrate their ability to engage with local unemployed and economically inactive residents in eligible communities across the AMLAG area through the relevant Housing Associations. Projects will deliver a level of 'training' relevant to the needs of participants and move them closer to the workforce. This may include addressing soft skills such as increasing confidence, raising aspiration and boosting self-esteem; accredited training; or anything in between. Following the intervention at least 50% of participants will be supported into further training, job seeking or employment. Route to self-employment: Projects are also encouraged that raise aspiration in eligible beneficiaries and recruit them to a course (min of 12 hours interaction) where they will learn how to become enterprise ready. Applicants should demonstrate where they are linking with Housing Providers and other relevant organisations for engagement, support and/or legacy purposes. Demonstration of innovative thinking in the applicant's exit strategy will be a priority. We are looking for: * Projects where training is provided in a way that also aims to address participants' needs holistically and/or the most acute issues identified in the IMD. * Projects that alleviate issues associated with mental health and/or fuel poverty. * Projects that include a degree of co-design will also be encouraged. Indicatively, the Local Action Group has allocated the following amount: Skills development PS140,000 ESF PS28,000 ERDF (enabling) Route to self-employment: PS165,000 ERDF ERDF and ESF investment in the CLLD target areas is intended to make a significant impact on local employment, skills and enterprise. The minimum application level for funding is PS15,000 All potential applicant organisations are encouraged to work together with other local partners to generate new ideas, approaches and develop joint proposals. Typically projects should plan to deliver activity for a minimum of 6 months and can plan to deliver up to June 2022. However, the LAG reserves the right to vary the minimum and maximum durations, upwards or downwards. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/13a5fc36-9388-43d4-ac05-07bfa48a3ffa | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Apr 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 8 Jun 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CORNWALL DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LTD | | Locality | REDRUTH | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR15 3QG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Pool & Tehidy | | Westminster constituency | Camborne and Redruth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80500000 - Training services ## Release History - 15 Apr 2019 at 14:13 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/13a5fc36-9388-43d4-ac05-07bfa48a3ffa ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/13a5fc36-9388-43d4-ac05-07bfa48a3ffa 15th April 2019 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/1c59ab60-fe52-4f85-afed-a2836e5e6b76 AMLAG Call Specification - https://communityledcornwall.co.uk/calls-for-applicants/ Link to CLLD website ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
