YPO are looking for providers to be appointed onto a Framework Agreement for the provision of Apprenticeship Standards and Associated Training. The Framework is designed to meet the needs of all public sector organisations which includes YPO's internal requirements. This framework is being procured under the Light Touch Regime (LTR) and therefore subject to the limited regulation and will be conducted in accordance with regulations 74 to 76 Public Contracts Regulations 2015. Each lot is broken down into 3 tiers. Tier 1 is the region, tier 2 is the apprenticeship route and tier 3 is the apprenticeship standard. The tier 2 routes are: - Agriculture, environmental and animal care, - Business and administration, - Catering and hospitality, - Childcare and education, - Construction, - Creative and design, - Digital, - Engineering and manufacturing, - Hair and beauty, - Health and science, - Legal, finance and accounting, - Protective services, - Sales, marketing and procurement, - Social care, - Transport and logistics. A list of the tier 3 standards can be found on the following link, as well as within the tender documents: https://www.instituteforapprenticeships.org/apprenticeship-standards/. At the point of publishing the first round of the framework on the 23 April 2018, there were 257 standards approved for delivery. The list of standards will be developed over the duration of the framework. Due to the constantly developing market of apprenticeships we want to ensure the framework is as flexible as possible. As part of the extension in place from 1st August 2022 YPO took the opportunity to bring flexibility for providers and customers by the addition of a new process, whereby existing providers will be able to add standards on a more regular basis. All new providers wishing to be part of the framework will still be required to follow the existing procedure in line with the Rounds timetable which are opened up on a quarterly basis.
