Summary

Machine-generated summary

East Renfrewshire Council is inviting tenders from suitably qualified companies to support a wide range of employability programmes. The flexible framework will be re-opened at least annually and is divided into lots, with bidders able to apply for one or more lots and no restriction on the number bid for. Bidders must complete the master ITT before bidding for lots. A framework position does not guarantee work; call-off contracts will be awarded annually or requirement by requirement, either through mini-competition or direct award at the council's discretion. Providers will not be formally ranked. Lots are subject to securing funding, and the council may deliver some services in-house.

Description

East Renfrewshire Council is inviting tenders, from suitably qualified companies to support a wide range of employability programmes. This is a flexible framework that will be re-opened at least annually. The MASTER ITT MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE MOVING ONTO LOTS YOU WISH TO BID FOR Bidders can apply for one or more lots available. There are no restrictions on how many lots you wish to bid for. A position on the framework does not guarantee work will be awarded. Call-off contracts will be made on both an annual and requirement-by-requirement basis throughout the duration of the framework. Providers who have been awarded positions on the framework will not be formally ranked and call-off contracts will be awarded through either a mini-competition or a direct award. It is expected that mini-competitions may be undertaken where multiple providers can meet the requirement, while direct awards may be undertaken where a single provider can meet the requirement. Ultimately, however, the decision to run either a mini-competition or a direct award is within the sole discretion of the council. The Lots available are subject to securing funding. ERC reserves the option to deliver some of these services in-house
