The tender, titled "Provision of Digital Awareness and use of Technology Courses for Southwark Council," will be open for submission until 26th June 2017, with the contract anticipated to commence on 1st August 2017 and running for 12 months. This procurement is classified under training services and has a budget of £70,000, with a minimum value set at £5,000. The procurement method is an open procedure, allowing for broad competition from interested parties. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for training providers, particularly those specialising in digital skills and technology integration. Businesses that offer educational services, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community and social enterprises (VCSEs), would find this procurement well-suited to their capabilities. Partners will have the chance to deliver a comprehensive package of training courses, thereby contributing to the council's vision of achieving a "digital by default" service model, which can significantly enhance their visibility and reputation within the public sector. ## Notice Digital Awareness and the use of Technology is a programme of learning courses that Southwark Council would like to offer to a range of managers, staff and external associates. The programme comprises 10 training courses, and we are looking for a provider to deliver this entire package of learning on behalf of the council. Providers should note that whilst Southwark has previously worked with providers to deliver the Microsoft Office suite of packages, some of the courses we wish to deliver to managers and staff within this programme are new i.e. "How Can Digital Technology Improve Your Service Delivery". We are working towards modernising the way we work and deliver services, and aim to become a council which has a "digital by default" approach to services. With this in mind, we need to prepare the organisation for working in this way, by introducing training interventions that will support this transition. The contract is for 12 months, and it is anticipated that it will commence on 1st August 2017. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/63114300-e9f3-4228-9b51-56360151cbc8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Jun 2017 | | Submission deadline | 26 Jun 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Jul 2017 - 31 Jul 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £70,000 | | 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 | LONDON BOROUGH OF SOUTHWARK | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South East London | | Postcode | SE1 2QH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI44 Lewisham and Southwark | | Local authority | Southwark | | Electoral ward | London Bridge & West Bermondsey | | Westminster constituency | Bermondsey and Old Southwark | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80500000 - Training services ## Release History - 12 Jun 2017 at 12:16 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/63114300-e9f3-4228-9b51-56360151cbc8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/63114300-e9f3-4228-9b51-56360151cbc8 12th June 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.southwark.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
