Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
Most small solo traders or micro-businesses will struggle unless they hold specific CIH accreditation or can deliver at least one lot competently; this is a framework contract requiring sustained availability, quality assurance processes, and often needs training provider insurance and professional accreditation.
How to bid
This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
