## Summary

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is seeking a contractor for the project titled "EHRC 1819-47 Human Rights Training for Ombudsman Schemes." This initiative falls within the training services industry and aims to enhance the skills of managers, investigators, and caseworkers across various regions in England and Wales. The procurement method is an open procedure, with a tender period that concluded on 15 January 2019, while the work is expected to be finalised by 31 March 2019. The contract is valued at £20,000, and the project specifically addresses the need for a human rights-based approach within ombudsman operations. The EHRC, located in Manchester, is the contracting authority responsible for this procurement process.

This training tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in training services, particularly those experienced in human rights consultancy or social research. Companies that are small to medium enterprises (SMEs) should actively consider this contract as it encourages participation from SMEs to uphold the vital human rights ethos in public service. Providers that can deliver tailored training sessions incorporating the principles derived from the Northern Ireland Public Services Ombudsman's resources will be well-positioned to compete effectively for this contract.

## Notice

We are looking for a suitably experienced contractor to develop and deliver training on 'taking a human rights based approach' to ombudsman schemes in England and Wales. The training will be based on a human rights manual which was produced by the Northern Ireland Public Services Ombudsman and redeveloped as a web-based resource by the Equality and Human Rights Commission. The purpose of the training is to support managers, investigators and caseworkers working in ombudsman schemes in England and Wales to identify and act on human rights issues that arise in casework and to help them embed human rights considerations into their investigations, reports and recommendations. The work should be completed by the end of March 2019.
