South Lanarkshire Council; Employability Services PSA

South Lanarkshire Council’s new Employability Services PSA - a flexible procurement framework offering contract opportunities for providers across employability, wellbeing, and support services

During this online webinar we will watch our expert walk you through the bidding process, using the Police Scotland tender documents for this opportunity. We will demo how to register/ login to Public Contracts Scotland (PCS) , how to find the contract notice and express interest. We then follow the Police Scotland buyer’s instructions verbatim, to access the docs in Public Contracts Scotland-tender (PCS-t) and open all envelopes. We will spend time on questions that perhaps tripped bidders up in the past. We also demo the Q&A functionality and how to upload evidence and response documents. Essentially the aim is for you as a bidder, watch our trainer going through the tendering process as a supplier in real-time, to ensure that you know what your next step will be.

This webinar will include:

• Introductions and house keeping from SDP
• Show you how to register and login to Public Contracts Scotland /Public Contracts Scotland-tender
• How to search and find the SLC PSA opportunity
• Search PCS-t for this contract, using the actual project code
• Open the Single Procurement Document and supporting docs for this framework opportunity
