Tender description

West Yorkshire Combined Authority is looking to appoint a supplier to create and deliver an innovative programme that should engage, inspire, and excite primary aged children (aged 7-11) about future career opportunities within the green economy. The programme is envisaged to raise the aspirations and broaden the horizons of at least 1,000 primary age pupils from across West Yorkshire through career-related learning with a focus on green skills, pathways and career opportunities. We want to excite children about relevant subjects, enhance their understanding of green skills and jobs, challenge gender and social stereotypes, increase the young people's confidence and attitude to learning through a mix of engaging activities that connect learning to life and opportunities.

About the buyer

The West Yorkshire Combined Authority buys as a local government organisation, with its own Commercial and Procurement team supporting colleagues across the authority.

Smaller contracts go out as Requests to Quote, with Invitations to Tender used for larger opportunities. External frameworks including the Crown Commercial Service, YPO and NEPO let the authority procure goods, works and services without running a full tender. The team also builds social value into its procurement processes.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of the West Yorkshire Combined Authority's contract awards have been in business services, software and information systems and architectural and engineering services.
