The programme falls under the services procurement category, aiming to enhance the effectiveness of its departmental leaders, with a focus on training services. The BBC is based in London, United Kingdom, and the programme targets new and prioritised departmental leaders from all divisions of the BBC across the UK and globally. The procurement stage was an open procedure, with a total contract value of £315,000 and an emphasis on quality criteria in the award process. This tender by the BBC for a Leadership Development Programme presents opportunities for external partners in the personal development training services sector. Businesses with expertise in designing and delivering blended learning solutions, particularly for leadership development, would be well-suited to compete. The initial term of the contract is 24 months with a possible extension of 12 months, offering a potential growth opportunity for businesses capable of meeting the BBC's ongoing leadership training needs. Interested parties can engage through the BBC's online procurement portal for further details and submission requirements. ## Notice The BBC wants to launch a new Leadership Development Programme in the first quarter of 2024 to build the effectiveness of its Departmental leaders. The proposed solution would be open initially to new and prioritised Departmental leaders from all divisions and functional areas of the BBC, including staff from public service and commercial areas, based across the UK and around the world. We are seeking a trusted external partner to design and deliver this new blended learning solution. There are around 950 Departmental Leaders in the BBC. Approximately 70 are new to their role each year. Places on the blended cohort development programme will be targeted at newly transitioned leaders in their first departmental leader role. We estimate a minimum annual demand of 70 per year for this leadership solution, covering all newcomers to that level and a small number of others prioritised to promote accelerated progression. However, we are interested in working with external partners with the capacity to scale up to offer more places on the programme to meet business need. BBC departmental leaders carry out a range of roles and are key to the BBC's ability to deliver value to all audiences whilst changing and adapting. They are mainly highly experienced professionals managing relatively large areas of the BBC. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The BBC wants to launch a new Leadership Development Programme in the first quarter of 2024 to build the effectiveness of its Departmental leaders.
