DWP WORK PROGRAMME CPA18 TENDER

DWP have launched an Invitation to Tender (ITT) for a Work Programme contract in CPA18 North East Yorkshire and the Humber region. This call-off contract is available to eligible providers on LOT 8 of the ERSS Framework.

Full details of the specification and a framework provider contact list can be found on the Contracts Finder website.

Organisations interested in promoting themselves as potential delivery partners are strongly encouraged to use the Merlin Standard Expression of interest, available for completion and to view on the Merlin search EoI page.

Use of the standard EOI format, developed by Welfare to Work industry representatives, is a Merlin Standard best practice example providing evidence against Element 2c.6, that will be taken into account in future Merlin assessments.

Please note that, whilst DWP are signposting potential delivery partners to the ERSS Framework Suppliers, they are not recommending any organisation as potential delivery partners. Potential suppliers are free to choose whether to engage with organisations as they see fit.
