Description

Worcestershire County Council is putting in place a DPS for Skills and Investment Grant Funding.   The Council's  Investment in Skills Team  aims to help people into employment and to work towards improving skills in the county. 
      
      The scope of the projects delivered by the Investment in Skills Team can vary in context, value and duration but, collectively, and over time they support the goals of the Team which is funded by various grant providers such as the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, the Department for Education, etc .   The Team does not have the capacity to meet all the needs of all its Service Users, it therefore commissions the knowledge and skills of externally qualified, licensed and experienced providers to work on a variety of training projects as and when required to meet requirements. 
      
      There are 5 Categories which Suppliers may wish to apply for, they are: 
      
      Category 1 Employability & Skills
      Training for people to build up sector-specific skills and/or upskill to help people gain skills for life, help support skills demands in their local area, and ultimately help people to get into employment and have the opportunity for a progression within their current job.
      
      Category 2 Education
      Training and support to help adults improve their numeracy skills in everyday life and boost their employment prospects. 
      
      It also aims to contribute to businesses to develop their employees' numeracy skills which can boost productivity, increase profits, and improve employee retention. 
      
      Category 3 Digital 
      Developing digital tools to support various projects.
      
      Category 4 Consultancy 
      Advice and support for businesses in the county via curriculum development, workforce planning, and supported internship. The aim will be to support businesses with growth and competitive advantage by fulfilling their staffing/skills needs. 
      
      Category 5 Health and Wellbeing
      Training, advice and guidance to support health and wellbeing, and to improve confidence, resilience, motivation, social integration with the goal of empowering people to achieve their true employment potential.

Employability Services Procured Service Arrangement - Phase 2

The Council is seeking to appoint service providers through a Procured Service Arrangement (PSA). This is a bespoke arrangement/flexible framework which will be developed primarily for Employability Services but can be accessed by all services within the Council. The PSA will be procured using the “light touch” procedure set out in Regulations 74 -76 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 (“the 2015 Regulations”). This allows the Council to carry out a selection process which adopts the principles of equal treatment, non-discrimination and transparency and complies with procurement best practice without requiring the use of the traditional open or restricted procedure set out in the 2015 Regulations. The PSA has a broad scope of service delivery with the opportunity for many providers to be appointed. There is no limit on the number of providers who can be appointed to any of the lots under the PSA. The PSA remains open for its lifetime which allows for new providers to be added over its term, at regular intervals which will be advised by the Council. Applicants to the PSA will be evaluated in ‘Phases’, based on the closing date for each Phase. Following the closing of each Phase, the PSA will re-open for new applications for the next Phase.
