In plain English
East Lothian Council wants a provider to deliver the Income Maximisation Service, funded through the Scottish Government's Parental Employability Support programme. It aims to help parents move into work or progress in their current jobs, and to tackle in-work poverty. The notice does not state a contract value.
What the buyer wants
• Provide person-centred support to parents to address barriers to work, such as lack of skills or work experience, health issues, money worries, or low motivation. • Help parents progress through the stages towards work, including parents already in jobs, through training and employability support. • Offer money advice to help parents increase their income and reduce in-work poverty.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice sets out no specific eligibility criteria, qualifications, insurance or experience requirements, so nothing in it explicitly rules out a small business, but the full tender documents should be checked because the estimated value is not given.
Always check the tender documents.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
