Description

Growth Platform wish to procure one or more suppliers to recruit to and facilitate the Peer Networks cohorts; bidders may bid on an individual cohort basis or specify their lower and upper number (between one and four cohorts). We do not anticipate that facilitators will deliver more than 4 cohorts each.

Whilst we want full geographical and sector coverage of all businesses in the LCR we welcome geographic or sector specific submissions to ensure we have full coverage across the LCR.

In total Growth Platform are procuring the delivery of 6 cohorts comprising of a minimum of 10 participants with each supplier bidding for a maximum of 4 cohorts.

The successful supplier will need to understand the business support landscape within the region to ensure that the service provided will complement and add value to the support currently available within the region to help SMEs. Suppliers are expected to provide all platforms, equipment and materials required for the delivery of the programme, unless agreed in advance through specific arrangements.
