## About this tender

Cambridge City Council in behalf and in support of The North East Cambridge Development (NEC) is seeking quotes for the project described below:

### The Reason for this project

The North East Cambridge development is likely to bring c 15,000 new jobs through a mix of employment opportunities, supporting local residents and the Greater Cambridge economy. This is also alongside promoting ways to work with local employers, schools and academies , reducing the skills gap as a result, with consideration and focus on Apprenticeships and developing NEET/Unemployment strategy with partners and clear links to LSIP priorities and a golden thread through local policy.

### Introduction

The Council is at the earliest stages of seeking a partner who can support us in defining this project and finding solutions. We are looking to build local resilience, to up skill the residents of the North East Cambridge area to allow them to take advantage of any and all employment opportunities this development may offer. In order to understand how, at the end of the project, we have supported the local communities we need to understand the 'where we are now' picture and to see if there are obvious areas of supporting the growing need for employment. At the end of the project we would want to be able to demonstrate the upskilling that has taken place, demonstrate a reduction in unemployment, growth in work force flexibility, as well as understanding any ongoing training required or other metrics that are applicable to this project to ensure , if possible, that positive outcomes are embedded in the locale.
