## Summary

The London Borough of Merton is seeking training providers to deliver a range of 102 different Apprenticeship Standards under the title "YPO - Multiple Apprenticeship Standards". This procurement falls under the education and training services category and uses an open procedure for tendering. The contract has an award value of £2,000,000 and is set to run from 29 April 2021 to 30 March 2024. The tender period for submissions ended on 12 February 2021, and the contract award was dated 22 April 2021. The project delivery will primarily take place in the region of England.

This contract represents a significant opportunity for training providers, especially those offering apprenticeship services across a variety of sectors. Businesses that are competitively positioned in the education and training industry, particularly those skilled in delivering tailored apprenticeship programmes, will find this tender suitable. The involvement of multiple Lot categories indicates that there is potential for a diverse range of training organisations, including SMEs and larger providers, to engage with the Merton Borough Council and contribute to the local workforce development.

## Notice

The London Borough of Merton would like to invite training providers to bid for the delivery of 102 different Apprenticeship Standards that they are able to deliver across a total of 12 Lot categories. The ITT is being released using both the ESPO and YPO frameworks. We ask providers that are signed up to both sets of frameworks to only submit their bid through the one framework, with ESPO being our preferred framework of choice that providers use. The London Borough of Merton intends to award Contracts to the two highest ranked bidders for each lot which could potentially be increased if it is deemed there is good reason to deviate from the original award scheme. Training providers are asked to refer to the following sets of document in relation to the one relevant framework agreement they are signed up to: ESPO 554_18 ADPS Call-Off Terms v3 554-18 Further Competition Template - Part A v3 554-18 Further Competition Template - Part B v3 Appendix 1 Bi-Monthly Progress Tracker Template YPO Multi Lot Apprenticeships Framework Further Competition Template v2
