Work Programme Supply Chains Work Programme Supply Chains The information contained in the table below reflects updates and changes to the Work Programme supply chains and is correct as at 30 September 2013. It is published in the interests of transparency. It is limited to those in supply chains delivering to prime providers as part of their tier 1 and 2 chains. Definitions of what these tiers incorporate vary from prime provider to prime provider. There are additional suppliers beyond these tiers who are largely to be called on to deliver one off, unique interventions in response to a particular participants needs and circumstances. The Department for Work and Pensions fully anticipate that supply chains will be dynamic, with scope to flex and evolve to reflect change within the labour market and participant needs. The Department intends to update this information at regular intervals (generally every 6 months) dependant on time and resources available. In addition to the Merlin standard, a robust process is in place for the Department to approve any supply chain changes and to ensure that the service on offer is not compromised or reduced. Comparison between the corrected March 2013 stock take and the September 2013 figures shows a net increase in the overall number of organisations in the supply chains across all sectors. The table below illustrates these changes Sector Number of organisations in the supply chain Private At 30 September 2013 - 367 compared to 351 at 31 March 2013 Public At 30 September 2013 - 128 compared to 124 at 30 March 2013 Voluntary or Community (VCS) At 30 September 2013 - 363 compared to 355 at 30 March 2013 Totals At 30 September 2013 - 858 organisations compared to 830 at March 2013. Note March figures for all 3 sectors adjusted slightly to reflect corrections to earlier mis reporting.

Locally DWP has contracted with two ‘prime’ contractors (A4E and Ingeus) to deliver this provision which aims to support local people in receipt of DWP benefits into sustainable employment. The report will provide the latest performance data for delivery in Wirral as published by DWP and will seek to provide comparators where available. 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 The DWP Work Programme introduced in June 2011 is a nationally contracted programme which has rolled out a payment by results model on a large scale, where Prime Contractors are paid on sustainable job outcomes. The payments are designed to incentivise the contractors to work with the full range of benefit claimants with larger payments on securing job outcomes and ongoing payments for up to two years for those furthest from the labour market. All referrals to the Work Programme are through Jobcentre Plus. There are different thresholds for referrals to the Work Programme depending on age and benefit type. 2.2 DWP contract with providers over large geographical areas known as Contract Package Areas (CPA) with Wirral being part of the Merseyside, Halton, Cumbria & Lancashire CPA. The payment group for a claimant is the group that Jobcentre Plus assigns the claimant to, on the basis of the benefit they receive.

  • Bridges Into Work Overview
    The Bridges into Work project started in January 2009. Its aim is to support local people gain the skills and confidence to help them move towards employment. The project is part funded by the Welsh European Funding Office across 6 local authorities in Convergence areas of South Wales – Merthyr Tydfil , Rhondda Cynon Taf, Torfaen, Blaenau Gwent, Bridgend and Caerphilly. In Merthyr Tydfil the project is managed and implemented by Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council, which has enjoyed massive success with its recent venture The Neighbourhood Learning Programme. It has helped to engage local people to secure full time employment and to progress onto further learning in recent years. Carrying on from the achievement is the Neighbourhood Learning Centre, Gurnos and the newly established Training Employment Centre in Treharris. Both centres seek to engage with local people from all parts of Merthyr Tydfil and fulfil the Bridges into Work objective of providing encouragement, training, advice and guidance for socially excluded people with the view to get them back into work. The Neighbourhood Learning Centre has a range of training facilities covering a variety of sectors including plumbing, painting and decorating, carpentry, bricklaying, plastering, retail, customer service and computer courses. There are a team of experienced tutors who deliver training for local people within the community. Bridges into Work successfully delivered a Pre-Employment course for Cwm Taf Health Trust to recruit Health Care Assistants. With the help and support of the Neighbourhood Learning Pre-Employment Partnership fronted by the Bridges into Work Programme which includes organisations such as Voluntary Action Merthyr Tydfil, Remploy, Working Links, Shaw Trust, A4E, JobCentre Plus and JobMatch successfully provided and supported participants interested in becoming Health Care Assistants.

English and mathematical skills are successfully developed through their practical application in realistic vocational settings . pre-course information, advice and guidance are good and, coupled with thorough initial assessment, ensure that learners are placed and retained on the right courses . equality of opportunity is skilfully promoted, and through carefully planned activities, learners develop a good understanding of life in a diverse society . board members and senior managers have worked successfully and quickly to address the majority of the areas for improvement identified at the last inspection . performance management of staff and the use of management information are effective and enable managers to drive improvements in all areas of delivery. This is not yet an outstanding provider because: . not enough apprentices achieve their qualifications on time . written feedback is not sufficiently detailed, and targets are not always specific enough to inform learners what they need to do to progress .
