This procurement, categorised under civic betterment and community facility support services, is currently in the active tender stage and is expected to run until 30th June 2022. The procurement process utilises a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) allowing for continuous engagement of smaller service providers, particularly from the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise sector, to deliver support services throughout Norfolk. Interested parties should direct their applications through the East Coast College Proactis portal to participate. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary groups with expertise in community-led services. Businesses specialising in outreach and employability support, particularly those with experience in engaging underserved communities, would be well-suited to compete for these contracts. By participating, these organisations can not only expand their service reach but also contribute to vital community projects funded through the National Lottery Community Fund's Building Better Opportunities Programme. ## Notice East Coast College has been successful in securing extension funding through the National Lottery Community Fund's Building Better Opportunities Programme, which is 50% financed by the European Social Fund. The project has already identified a range of main delivery partners, who will provide employability and community led specialist services from hubs across Norfolk. The project now aims to engage a range of smaller providers, including micro groups from the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise Sector, in recognition of their skills in reaching out to people who are often below the radar of mainstream services. This specialist support will form part of the Norfolk Community College and will be procured by way of a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). The DPS is already running and new applications are welcome. Further competitions will be run as and when required to award contracts for the provision of services up to 30/09/2022. This Procurement is being managed through the East Coast College Proactis portal and only submissions received through this portal will be considered.
