## Summary

The Cabinet Office is preparing to procure a circa £13m contract for the central Digital Apprenticeship Provision, seeking supplier feedback. The contract is separate from the previous "Tech Track" procurement, with a virtual supplier engagement event planned for 5th March 2024. Suppliers are invited to request an invite by contacting csapprenticeships@cabinetoffice.gov.uk by 4th March 2024. The event aims to present plans and gather feedback, with a follow-up questionnaire to capture additional insights.

This tender for training services presents an opportunity for SMEs to compete, with a focus on providing cross Civil Service apprenticeship provision. Businesses well-suited for this opportunity include training service providers interested in securing long-term government contracts. The planned procurement aims to replace an expiring contract with a new provider, offering growth potential for businesses in the training industry seeking to expand their portfolio through government contracts.

## Notice

The Civil Service Apprenticeship Unit (CSAU), sits within the Government People Group (GPG) department of Cabinet Office. We are responsible for procuring and managing contracts that provide cross Civil Service provision for apprenticeships. These contracts can be used by any Civil Service department. We are preparing to procure a circa PS13m contract for the central Digital apprenticeship provision to replace our existing contract which expires in June 2024. This contract is separate to the Cabinet Office "Tech Track" procurement which concluded earlier this year. We wish to seek supplier feedback on our plans. We intend to run a virtual supplier engagement event from 1pm on 5th March 2024, via MS teams. At the event, we will present our plans and provide opportunities for your feedback. Additionally, we will also be sending attendees a follow up questionnaire to ensure we capture as much feedback as possible. If you would like to attend the event, please request an invitation by contacting the team at csapprenticeships@cabinetoffice.gov.uk by 12pm on 4th March 2024. Please title your email "Digital Supplier Engagement Event Invite" to help us respond to emails as quickly as possible. We are only able to deliver this one event in March but plan to run another event in Summer 2024 to present our final plans and procurement timelines to keep suppliers informed.
