## Summary

The Sheffield City Council has initiated a tender for the "UKSPF Supported Work Placement Project for people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) - Opportunity Sheffield". This project aims to provide end-to-end services for individuals with Autism, helping them transition from supported volunteering to unsupported employment. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender deadline is set for October 25, 2023. The contract period spans from December 1, 2023, to March 31, 2025, with the delivery address in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom.

This tender by Sheffield City Council presents an opportunity for businesses in the career guidance and guidance services industry to participate. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are suitable for this procurement. Businesses interested in providing tailored support to individuals with Autism for workforce inclusion are well-suited to compete in this tender process.

## Notice

The Provider shall deliver an end to end service for people who have Autism and support them in a supported volunteering role with the aim of the individual eventually moving into unsupported employment. The aim of the service will be to offer a 'place and train then fade' service, so after a period of time the individual will be able to attend and carry out their volunteering/ work placement duties unsupported. This project is part-funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund
