Abstract

The Professional Learning Passport (PLP) is a flexible online e-portfolio available to all EWC registrants.The requirement will be awarded to a single supplier under a direct award arrangement to ensure continuity of service and will maintain service continuity and system compatibility, and avoid unnecessary technical disruption and transition costs. Appointing an alternative supplier would create significant technical difficulties and result in a duplication of costs through transition and knowledge transfer activities, increasing delivery risk and potentially impacting service continuity. Retaining the incumbent supplier provides the most efficient and cost-effective solution.
