England Construction Opportunities (ECO)

Tender description

CITB has a commercial need to better support individuals when entering into construction jobs to ensure sustained employment in the industry. Previous commissions have shown that new entrants require more assistance in the workplace than just construction training. This tender is looking to commission this additional support for the first year of the new entrants' journey. Lot 1: CITB requires1-3 suppliers to develop a model to support new entrants, recently employed in Construction in England to achieve a sustained employment period of up to 12 months. Better support for individuals when starting employment will increase the retention for new entrants to the industry. These new entrants will enter employment through existing partnerships with a range of 'routes to work' providers. This commission will be solely based on the individual support of new entrants into the industry or career changers. The supplier will support the new entrant with an Employment Support Plan to include planned activities to develop and nurture the individual through the first 12 months in a new position in construction. A market engagement webinar will be held to inform the commission, a survey and an opportunity to request individual meetings will be available.
