Lot — bid on it if it fits
This contract has one lot. Bid if it suits your firm.
There are generally two types of agency required by the College. The first is for vacancy cover when either we are unable to recruit to the post or when awaiting a new starter to begin when the previous post holder has left. The second is sickness cover where classes are unable to be merged and would be cancelled without the cover.
There is then the occasional need and option for a ‘temp to perm’ option with recruited staff and we will be looking to agree a sliding scale of rates with successful agencies.
Finally, we have a lot of part time roles and need to understand the pricing structure if we offer a part time post on varying FTE’s, so advice and knowledge from an agency is needed.
We intend to operate a ‘framework’ of suppliers, with a single ‘Tier 1’ agency having the first refusal at filling posts, and up to 3 agencies at ‘Tier 2’ who would be offered roles which the Tier 1 agency cannot fill. This framework structure would be managed by the College HR team.
