Tender description
Opportunity Sheffield seeks proposals which can address the particular engagement, employability, and progression to work challenges faced by residents within Sheffield’s ethnic minority communities, with sharp focus on those who are economically inactive. Providers will need to offer specialist interventions to help participants overcome personal and/or circumstantial barriers to the labour market. These interventions will be tailored to target participants. This project will be seeking to award four contracts with a max. budget of £85,000 each. This project is part-funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and Economic Inactivity Trailblazer funds.

About the buyer
Sheffield City Council is a local authority for the city of Sheffield, and runs its own procurement function for contracts across the organisation. Tender opportunities are advertised on YORtender, the council's e-tendering portal shared with local authorities across the Yorkshire and Humber region. Contracts above threshold also appear on Find a Tender, with lower-value opportunities listed on Contracts Finder. Framework agreements let the council call off from appointed suppliers without a fresh advertisement. An evaluation panel scores each bid, and the highest-scoring supplier wins the contract. Contract details are then published in the Contract Register within YORtender.
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 Sheffield City Council's contract awards have been in business services, construction work and IT services.
