## Summary

Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking tenders for the project titled "3771 - Employment Support Pathways", aimed at enhancing employment support services through innovative pathways connecting local people with job opportunities. This project, classified under business services and education and training sectors, has a total value of £20,000. The tender is currently in the active stage, with responses due by 31st May 2017. The contracts will commence on 21st June 2017 and run for a year, with service delivery expected in the North West of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in consulting, recruitment, and education services to grow by participating in the development of community-focused employment initiatives. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, as the buying organisation is keen on piloting scalable models that bridge gaps in local employment and support networks.

## Notice

Stockport Council's Neighbourhood Inclusion Team is seeking quotations for a project to support the development of more holistic employment support pathways. We want to design a service that more actively joins local people with local labour opportunities through volunteering and placement opportunities, whilst also recognising the value of tradition skills based support. We want to commission a project that can pilot new ways of working that could be scaled up, ultimately informing changes to employment support services in a locality and enhancing the links between businesses and areas of employment deprivation.
