## Summary

The Scottish Academy Construction Opportunities tender was awarded to two active suppliers, Comhairle Nan Eilean Siar and Barnardo's. The tender, initiated by the Construction Industry Training Board, aimed to provide support to individuals entering the construction workforce in the Highlands and Islands region. With a total contract value of £1,438,792.4, the procurement method used was an open procedure, and the contracts were signed on 16th August 2022.

This opportunity could be of interest to businesses operating in education and training services, particularly those focusing on supporting workforce entry and development. Suppliers with experience in providing in-work support to individuals entering construction may find this tender suitable. As the tender is already in the award stage, interested businesses can reach out to the buyer, Construction Industry Training Board, for potential future collaboration opportunities within the construction sector.

### Lot Information

Scotland Academy for Construction Opportunities - Highlands and Islands

Highlands and Islands. This commission will provide support to individuals entering the construction workforce to overcome any initial challenges they may face and to provide ongoing in-work support over the duration of the commission to improve the quality and longevity of work outcomes for participants

Scotland Academy for Construction Opportunities - Scotland Central and Southern

This proposal sets out an idea for a new and innovative commission for CITB, and a new opportunity in Scotland. The commission aims to provide support to individuals entering the construction workforce to overcome any initial challenges they may face and to provide ongoing in-work support over the duration of the commission to improve the quality and longevity of work outcomes for participants. The specific criteria for this commission will be to fund the support given to individuals on entering a new job in construction, with additional key performance indicators set at 3 months and 6 months sustained employment. As this intervention is supporting new individuals into construction, it will be a pre-requisite of the commission for individuals to start the programme with the appropriate training and on-site experiences in place. Successful suppliers will need to evidence this requirement, including interventions to become Employment and Site Ready, but this must be funded by the supplier through other funding routes outside of this commission. Additional information: A webinar will be held in June - additional information to follow.
