South Midlands Connect to Work Programme (Milton Keynes Area)

Descriptions

Milton Keynes City Council ('the Council') would like to engage with potential providers for a Connect to Work Programme to help tackle economic inactivity.

 

The Connect to Work Programme (CTW) is a grant funded initiative from the Department of Work & Pensions (DWP) targeting the 'economically inactive' in local areas. CTW forms part of the Government's strategy 'Get Britain Working' and it aims to help annually around 93,000 disabled people, those with health conditions and people with complex barriers to seek and find sustainable employment each year.

 

Milton Keynes City Council is working as part of the South Midlands regional group of local authorities, including West and North Northants, Central Beds, Beds Borough and Luton Councils. West Northants are the accountable body for the region and have decentralised their model to allow for localism and areas to meet the needs of their demographic. Each LA has created their own delivery plan and grant cost register to feed into the regional ones.

 

We are keen to hear from providers on the following questions. Please respond to the attached document latest by 5pm on 7th October 2025 via In-Tend Correspondence section/market engagement stage.

 

If there is sufficient interest in a market engagement event to explore the proposal in more detail, this will be held on 14th October 2025, via Microsoft Teams.

 

Please also indicate in your response to the Market Engagement if you would like to receive an invitation which will be sent separately subject to interest.

The Market Engagement document can be accessed on our e-tendering portal: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/milton-keynes/aspx/Home
