This procurement, classified under the CPV code 80000000, is in the open procurement stage. The tender period is set to conclude on 2nd June 2017, with contracts expected to commence on 16th June 2017 and running until 30th March 2018. Interested parties can submit their proposals for funding to support governance and trusteeship efforts in the Further Education sector. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in educational services, particularly those focusing on research, event coordination, and training for new board members. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement is designed to foster inclusive partnerships aimed at enhancing governance in the education sector. Companies that can demonstrate experience in delivering high-profile events, inductions, and collaborative projects may find this tender particularly advantageous for their growth. ## Notice This ITT is for proposals for regional governance and trusteeship support from regions across the Further Education (FE) and skills sector. Last year, the Foundation funded a Regional Support Programme. This was mainly in the form of events to support governors and clerks in colleges, inductions for new board members, and five regional research projects. The regional programme demonstrated a wide degree of reach with representatives from 187 colleges with over 600 attendees. The research projects focussed on Chairs peer review, board assurance frameworks and practice, the role of governors in a devolved world and effective monitoring of teaching learning and assessment in adult and continuing education. The outputs from these projects will be on the ETF Leadership Hub. This year, using the evaluation and feedback from last year's projects, the Foundation are continuing with the regional fund, and is looking for proposals that cover the following areas: (1) research, (2) high profile events and (3) a series of inductions for new governors. Tenderers may bid for one or all of these areas. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/012539f0-bcec-4331-8213-dc78530c88d9 | | 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 May 2017 | | Submission deadline | 2 Jun 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 15 Jun 2017 - 30 Mar 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £6,000 | | 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 | EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOUNDATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1W 9SP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | Pimlico North | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLE Yorkshire and The Humber, TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London, TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services - 80400000 - Adult and other education services ## Release History - 12 May 2017 at 16:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/012539f0-bcec-4331-8213-dc78530c88d9 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/012539f0-bcec-4331-8213-dc78530c88d9 12th May 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.mytenders.org/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAY142595 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.et-foundation.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
