Minutes:
The Board considered a report of the Strategic Director, People, on the
award of a contract for the delivery of services to encourage participation in
education and training.
The Board was reminded that in July 2017, it had granted authority for
Halton to lead on a joint procurement process for the delivery of a service
with Liverpool, Wirral and Knowsley authorities. The
tender opportunity was advertised in October 2017 and the evaluation process
was completed on 23 November 2017. After the initial assessment stage, a
provider was identified as meeting the criteria to go forward to the next
stage. This process was completed after the Board report was written and the
successful contractor was named and confirmed at the meeting.
RESOLVED: That the Strategic Director, People, be authorised to
enter into a contract with Career Connect to deliver services to encourage,
enable and assist young people to participate in education and training. The
contract will be awarded for a period of one year with the option of three
additional one year contracts.
