Description

The Cornwall Development Company (CDC) via the Cornwall & Isles of Scilly (CIOS) Growth & Skills Hub is seeking to appoint providers to deliver key elements of the Peer Network Programme. This is expected to support the growth of at least a specified number of participants and SMEs, through the provisions of cohort groups, across the CIOS LEP area.

CDC will commission up to 12 (twelve) individual cohorts/peer networks. Applications are invited by those who are seeking to deliver between one and all twelve cohorts.

The provider(s) will need to clearly demonstrate in their tender response how they will meet the required deliverables within the available budget and timescales.

The programme will be supported by a Playbook - a user handbook to aid the successful roll-out and implementation of the programme (see Enclosure 5). It aims to provide a common resource to support local delivery partners and will help ensure there is a suitable level of national consistency in how the programme is delivered, whilst allowing for a degree of local flexibility as appropriate. The relevant information will be provided to the successful provider(s).

For more information please see the Invitation to Tender and supporting documents.

PLEASE NOTE: Revision of Tender & Commission Timetable in Section 19 of the ITT can be found in attachments.
