383_17 Managed Training Services

Description

ESPO is seeking to establish a framework agreement for the provision of managed training services. The successful Managed Training Provider/s (MSP) will be responsible for the sourcing, administration and management of a variety of customer training requirements. The key aim of the framework will be to promote efficiencies and cost savings, as well as providing the customer with greater visibility of their training spend profile. ESPO will impose on economic operators requirements aimed at protecting the confidential nature of information made available throughout the procurement procedure (as permitted by Regulation 21(3)) and, before receiving that information, economic operators will be required to complete and return a Confidentiality Agreement, which will be available once economic operators have expressed an interest in the tender opportunity. The framework agreement will have the option to extend for up to a further 24 months. The total estimated value stated includes the option period. An eAuction process may be used to award subsequent call off contracts following the reopening of competition among the parties to the Framework Agreement.
