## Summary

The procurement process for the "Historic England Kickstart Wrap Around Skills and Development Training Programme" has been awarded to Intuitive Thinking Skills by Historic England, a government body located in Swindon, United Kingdom. This project falls under the education and training services category and has a total contract value of £200,000, commencing on 12th May 2021 and concluding on 30th June 2022. The procurement method used was the open procedure and the tender period ended on 12th April 2021. The contract aims to deliver essential employment support for young people on work placements under the government’s Kickstart Scheme.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses operating in the education and training sector, particularly those with a focus on youth services and employment support programmes. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with experience in training or welfare-to-work services would be well-suited to engage in similar contracts, especially as the programme aims to address the skills development needs of individuals at risk of long-term unemployment. Competition in delivering quality training solutions can facilitate growth in this impactful area of service delivery.

## Notice

Towards the end of 2020, the government launched the Kickstart Scheme, funded through the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and aimed at providing six month paid work placements specifically for 16-24-year-old who are currently claiming Universal Credit and are at risk of long term unemployment. Young people have been disproportionally impacted by the challenges of the past year. Government figures show that a record 538,000 under-25s claimed Universal Credit in lockdown and around 700,000 young people are set to leave education and enter the job market this year. Historic England is seeking to appoint an external organisation to deliver a Wrap Around Skills and Development Training Programme for our Kickstart Gateway to deliver consistent, high quality employment support to individuals employed on work placements through the scheme.
