Overview

Belfast City Council is procuring an open framework agreement for the delivery of agile employability and skills interventions across five lots (care sectors, customer services, practical sectors, professional and business services, and employability support) to address emerging labour market needs and provide flexible capacity alongside existing provision. The framework, estimated at £6 million, will commence in October 2026 for an initial two-year period and is structured to allow SMEs and social enterprises to join through periodic open entry points, with call-offs to be triggered sequentially following workplan approval, mini-competitions, and delegated authority sign-off.
