## Summary

The Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) is planning a tender titled "England Construction Opportunities (ECO)" focused on the education and training services sector in the United Kingdom. With a budget of £1,820,000, this procurement process aims to contract 1-3 suppliers to provide support for new entrants into the construction industry, ensuring sustained employment for up to 12 months. The tender is currently in the planning stage, with a market engagement webinar scheduled for 13 April 2022, and further notices anticipated on 16 May 2022.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in workforce development, training, and employment support. Companies with experience in creating tailored employment support plans and a strong understanding of the construction sector will be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. By participating in this tender, businesses can not only expand their service offerings but also contribute to the retention and success of new entrants in the construction industry, fostering long-term relationships with CITB and potential future contracts.

## Notice

CITB has a commercial need to better support individuals when entering into construction jobs to ensure sustained employment in the industry. Previous commissions have shown that new entrants require more assistance in the workplace than just construction training. This tender is looking to commission this additional support for the first year of the new entrants' journey.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

CITB requires1-3 suppliers to develop a model to support new entrants, recently employed in Construction in England to achieve a sustained employment period of up to 12 months. Better support for individuals when starting employment will increase the retention for new entrants to the industry. These new entrants will enter employment through existing partnerships with a range of 'routes to work' providers. This commission will be solely based on the individual support of new entrants into the industry or career changers. The supplier will support the new entrant with an Employment Support Plan to include planned activities to develop and nurture the individual through the first 12 months in a new position in construction. A market engagement webinar will be held to inform the commission, a survey and an opportunity to request individual meetings will be available.
