  • Tackling economic inequality
  • Equal opportunity

Tackling economic inequality

Supports staff, suppliers, customers and communities through the delivery of the contract to aid and develop new employment and digital skills opportunities in this high growth sector. This in turn can help create a diverse supply chain to deliver the contract including new businesses and entrepreneurs, start-ups, SMEs, VCSEs and mutuals by the ability to measure their skills and capabilities in a consistent and industry recognised manner - meaning we can compare 'eggs-with-eggs'

Equal opportunity

Through the evaluation and identification of existing skills and capabilities, and by providing new skills development opportunities, this service supports tacking inequality in employment, skills and pay in the workforce, additionally supporting in-work progression to help people, including those from disadvantaged or minority groups, to move into higher paid work by developing new skills relevant to the contract and future operating model
