## Summary

The Guildford Borough Council is seeking to appoint a contractor for the "GBC FP Training, Skills and Work Experience Project," aimed at enhancing community engagement through training and work opportunities. This project, classified under the provision of community services, will run for a duration of 3 plus 1 years, starting from December 15, 2017, and ending on December 14, 2020. The tender is currently in the active stage, with a deadline for submissions set for July 24, 2017. The total value of the contract is £520,000 per annum, with an additional possibility of funding for enhanced training activities ranging from £15,000 to £60,000 annually.

Businesses focusing on workforce development, community services, or horticulture may find significant opportunities in this tender, which not only aims to provide essential skills and retail experience but also delivers gardening and street cleansing services. Companies that excel in mentoring and offering tailored training programmes will be ideally positioned to compete. This project presents a chance for organisations dedicated to fostering community self-reliance and supporting less advantaged groups to enhance their visibility and impact in the local area.

## Notice

The principal aim of this project is to provide opportunities for residents to benefit from access to training, skills and work opportunities and to promote engagement and self-reliance within our less advantaged communities. The ability to provide these training opportunities is facilitated through the provision of gardening and street cleansing services on behalf of the Council. The Council wishes to appoint a contractor to deliver a 3 plus 1 year training, skills and work experience project. As part of the project, the contractor will deliver: (a) a programme of learning, training and work opportunities to prepare unemployed people for work, build their confidence, provide them with essential skills for living and employment and offer on-going mentoring to support their progression; (b) gardening services at various Council-owned sites; and (c) street cleansing services in the Park Barn and Westborough area. * In addition to the core budget of ?130,000/annum, further funding may be available to support the training and skills element of the project. Tenderers are asked to detail what additional activities they would undertake to support the objectives (a, b and c) in the event of further funding of ?15,000, ?30,000, ?45,000 and ?60,000 per annum being available. Additional information: All tender documentation are available on the Council's e-tendering portal: http://www.in-tendhost.co.uk/sesharedservices. All questions, clarifications and the submission of returns will be via the e-tendering portal. Delivery Notes Guildford Borough Council Millmead House, Millmead, Guildford, GU2 4BB.
