Description

Buckinghamshire New University is launching GLIDE, a new initiative which aims to generate increased levels of entrepreneurship within the region by consolidating the existing knowledge and expertise and streamlining it to better cater to the needs of individuals wishing to start their own business. By doing so, GLIDE seeks to encourage innovation in the wake of COVID-19 and ultimately invigorate economic development and productivity growth within the region.
      GLIDE is part funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) Programme which is designed to create jobs and support innovation, businesses, and local community regeneration. 
      
      The GLIDE programme, and subsequently this tender, is split into two lots. Suppliers can submit proposals for both or either lot.
      
      Lot 1 - Creative Entrepreneurs Bootcamps
      A series of workshops covering a range of topics aimed at supporting individuals who have a business idea relevant to the creative industries and providing them with the tools, knowledge and encouragement needed to start their own business. The successful supplier will be responsible for organising, managing and running the two virtual Bootcamps, with the first held in July 2021 and the second held in September 2021. 
      
      Lot 2 - Business Support 
      The second stage of the GLIDE programme seeks to support individuals further along in their entrepreneurial journey by providing direct support to a further 60 registered businesses.  The successful supplier will be responsible for organising, managing and running the workshops, which we anticipate taking place in late 2021 or early 2022. 
      
      Suppliers must be familiar with and comply with ERDF requirements.
      
      Suppliers who would like to take part in this tender process are invited to 'Express Interest' here https://in-tendhost.co.uk/bucksnewuni/aspx/

Dormant Assets Scheme Insolvency Solution

Should the disorderly insolvency of a Scheme participant occur, RFL would need to provide a B2C solution that mirrors the value that, and process by which, ‘live’ customers can be compensated through the firm’s insolvency practitioner. RFL is seeking to outsource this B2C solution and have it on standby, ready to be activated within a reasonable timeframe that mirrors the insolvency practitioner’s reclaim service should it become apparent that a participant is facing a disorderly insolvency. Activation of the B2C solution would be directed by RFL, based on information received from the participant’s insolvency practitioner and/or the FCA that confirms a disorderly insolvency. RFL wishes to procure a business process outsourcing (BPO) service that can calculate, validate, and process customer reclaims using data obtained from the participant’s insolvency practitioner. The BPO must securely store the data, with appropriate access controls governing it. The BPO service will need to be proportionate and appropriate to the insolvency event: it must be scalable (both up and down) and adapt to the insolvency practitioner, which will determine ways of working, processes, and timelines. RFL recognises these unique requirements will require a sophisticated and bespoke solution and is therefore anticipating that the supplier is likely to sub-contract elements. RFL must be assured that the overall solution is compliant with RFL policies and procedures, FCA and other regulations, that customers receive appropriate outcomes, and that appropriate service standards are achieved.
