The contract, valued at £300,000, is open for SMEs and VCSEs, suitable for businesses looking to provide training programme services in Rhondda Cynon Taf. The contract period is expected to start on 23rd August 2024 and run for an initial year, extendable up to three years. This public procurement opportunity offers a chance for businesses experienced in media literacy or relevant activities to showcase their capabilities in delivering services in Rhondda Cynon Taf. With a focus on local stakeholder networks, partnerships or sub-contracting arrangements are welcomed. Businesses aiming to grow in the training program services sector, particularly those engaged in media literacy development, are well-suited to compete for this opportunity with OFCOM. The contract presents a pathway for business growth and community impact over the three-year period. ## Notice Ofcom has duties to promote media literacy, delivery media literacy activities and encourage the delivery of media literacy activities. This ITT sets out our requirements to test a place-based approach to understand how effective this might be in improving people's media literacy. Over the past 6 months we have worked to understand what is already happening to support media literacy skills development in Rhondda Cynon Taf (RCT) and the need identified by local residents. Our intention is to commit to this work for a further three years. We have produced a Year 1 delivery plan (Appendix 5 - RCT plan) based on our work so far and tailored to the assets and needs of the community. Through this process we will commission an organisation who can deliver on this plan and produce further plans for Years 2 and 3, based on a delivery and learning cycle. We require organisations to demonstrate their experience of delivering media literacy or relevant activities in Rhondda Cynon Taf and that they have good existing networks with local stakeholders. As a result of the cross-sector focus of this project, we welcome partnership applications and/or sub-contracting arrangements. Any contract(s) awarded following the conclusion of the tender process will be for an initial duration of one year. The contract is expected to extended for two further periods of twelve months each. Any contract extensions are at Ofcom's absolute discretion. The maximum length of the contract is therefore three years. The contract will commence on 23 August 2024. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4bb39570-b576-4d75-b724-dab20afad914 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Jun 2024 | | Submission deadline | 29 Jul 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 22 Aug 2024 - 22 Aug 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £300,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | OFCOM | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South East London | | Postcode | SE1 9HA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI44 Lewisham and Southwark | | Local authority | Southwark | | Electoral ward | Borough & Bankside | | Westminster constituency | Bermondsey and Old Southwark | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80521000 - Training programme services ## Release History - 28 Jun 2024 at 11:53 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4bb39570-b576-4d75-b724-dab20afad914 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4bb39570-b576-4d75-b724-dab20afad914 28th June 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://ofcom.bravosolution.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
