Flexible New Deal is the major new employment provision being launched by the Department for Work and Pensions.
The first phase of tendering for Flexible New Deal has already taken place for contracts starting in October 2009,
with a second phase of bidding for contracts starting in 2010 expected to start this Spring.

Carley Consult have been actively involved in Flexible New Deal, supporting four
separate clients to qualify for the second stage of Phase 1 of the competition,
for whom we provided ongoing tender support. We have also provided positioning support to further clients seeking to become subcontractors to Flexible New Deal bidders. One of our smaller clients managed to become a named subcontractor
in more than 50% of all tenders submitted by all bidders (over 100 in total)
in Phase 1 of Flexible New Deal.

Moving ahead, we are developing services to help providers with the set up and
implementation of Flexible New Deal contracts, whether they are prime providers
or subcontractors. Our consultants have a career history of DWP contract setup
spanning New Deal Prime Provider, NDDP, Pathways to Work subcontracts and ESF to name but a few. We can provide an experienced, extra pair of hands to help
you through everything from premises set-up and staff training, to new contractual
requirements from DWP, such as Sustainable Development Action Plans and preparation for Star Rating.

We can also offer tender support for organisations seeking to participate in Phase 2
of Flexible New Deal, which includes new contracts for many parts of London, Southern England, the North West, North East and Scotland.

We would be delighted to meet with you to discuss our Flexible New Deal services.
Please see our contacts page for details of how to get in touch.

"Carley Consult did an outstanding job for us during Flexible New Deal.
Aside from the normal tender writing challenges, Jim and his staff did
an excellent job taking the qualifications and experience of the Dutch
and American parent companies and making them relevant to DWP.
Carley Consult exceeded my expectations in all aspects of the
bid round: formulating strategy, research, writing and logistics."
