Lot 1 - Request For Quotation Form - Pre Employment and Tickets

Tender description

The following is meant only as a guide to what we are wishing to commission providers will have their own views on methodology and we are looking for your expertise in making the case for what will work best when completing the accompanying RtQ response template. Please complete bottom section here on Quotation Submission Providers. The following is based on our experiences: Delivery of pre-employment training underpins our JCU / Brokerage model and is an essential pre-requisite for successfully placing candidates’ onsite. There is SFA funding available to fund this activity so added value is sought. Funding is made available for additional tickets. A methodology, rationale, and supporting achievement data should be provided for the delivery of the proposed model. The offer should make use of existing funded courses for eligible unemployed candidates such as the Health and Safety in the Construction Environment Level 1, and & Certificate in introduction to Employment in the Construction Industries. There may well also be some target groups for which funding is NOT available: • up-skilling opportunities as required • additional tickets for those in work who we can promote and backfill, • those not registered unemployed. Development work has been undertaken in partnership with the colleges demonstrating our commitment to help develop their capacity in relation to construction pre-employment training in order to maximise local impact for existing college users. These have also supported local unemployed residents from the boroughs identified through JCP and the brokerage networks seeking to gain employment in the sector. The targeting of CSCS and tickets should as far as possible match the opportunities currently available on NEV which involves regular involvement and feedback from employers. The JCU works closely with the brokerages in supporting throughput of candidates from CSCS following IAG onto selected tickets. Ultimately, we need to be setting ambitious targets for pre-employment as it should lead to interviews. It is therefore proposed that:- - 80 learner starts CSCS – 90% pass rate– 1 re-take max. - 70 learners go onto do tickets (according to demand / ability) up to a max of 2 tickets each - 90% of those completing tickets get interviews - 65 submitted for interviews - 75% of those interviewed into work - 50 into jobs
