Under the terms of this contract the successful supplier(s) will be required to deliver Community Benefits in support of the authority’s economic and social objectives. Accordingly, contract performance conditions may relate in particular to social and environmental considerations. The Community Benefits included in this contract are:
Newport City Council has established a Work Based Learning Academy in order to work with clients and suppliers to embed Community Benefits into appropriate contracts for supplies, services and works. The Council would therefore like to work with the successful contractor in order to deliver community benefits, initially around work place training, apprenticeship opportunities, work experience and other initiatives that would benefit NEET's ('NEET’ stands for young people aged 16-24 Not in Education, Employment or Training). Tenderer's are therefore required to provide a Community Benefits Plan as part of their tender submission, stating what actions they would take in order to support this initiative. Whilst it is a requirement that tenderer's must provide a Plan, the Plan will not be scored as part of the tender evaluation. The Plan submitted by the successful contractor however, will be incorporated into the contract and must be honoured and delivered.
Failure to agree to deliver Community Benefits as part of your tender submission may result in your tender being rejected as non-compliant.
