All suppliers wanting to have a contract awarded where a contract value is over £10 million will be required to support the development of an apprenticeship scheme. This would be where a long term and substantial value contract will be awarded. This does NOT take place on the Digital Marketplace but will be a full procurement process that will use the approved supplier list as the eligible providers to be asked to tender. It is essential that you are aware that you will need to commit to the apprenticeship scheme on application but this will ONLY be relevant if you are wishing to participate in a very large contract size. As such when you apply to join 365 Response you will be asked to commit to this assurance, even if at this time you do not wish to participate in a contract of this size. You do not have to have an apprenticeship scheme in place for any work under the £10 million threshold, but you must commit in case you may want to do so in the future.
