Description

Leicester City Council (the Authority) invites quotations for the provision of a training service for Scaffold Inspections for the Housing team to undertake.
The Housing Department currently has extremely limited provision for scaffold safety inspections. We are looking to acquire a training provider at the earliest possible opportunity.
Currently there are up to fifty (50) members of staff carrying out scaffold inspection as part of their duties. Most of their training certificates have expired, therefore they require retraining as the certification holds a three year expiry date.

The proposed contract will be for one year. We anticipate awarding to a single Supplier.
