This open procedure aims to appoint up to nine Lead Delivery Partners through a multiple lot framework running from June 1, 2021, to May 31, 2025, with a maximum value of £30 million. The deadline for submitting tenders is April 20, 2021. This procurement process is located in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom, and businesses have the opportunity to apply for one or multiple lots. This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in adult education and training services, particularly those offering vocational, technical, or computer training.

Competing organisations should prepare to demonstrate their expertise and capabilities in providing high-quality training solutions, as successful bidders will be integral to supporting the local community's skills development over the four-year contract period. ## Notice This invitation to tender (ITT) is issued by West Yorkshire Combined Authority (Combined Authority).
