The brief

The Office for National Statistics, on behalf of the Government Statistics Service in England are working to establish a single supplier Framework Agreement for Data Science Integrated Degree Apprenticeships.

The Government Statistics (GSS) Service is one of the Civil Service Professions and is a community for all civil servants working in the collection, production and communication of official statistics. https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/civil-service-government-statistical-service The GSS recognises that investing in people and offering high-quality apprenticeships will enable it to grow an engaged and committed workforce that has the right skills to deliver a high quality service to its end users.

The Data Science Apprenticeship entry route is seen as a vital route into the GSS profession, allowing people from all backgrounds to study data science to degree level while working amongst and learning from experienced professionals across Government.

Through this Framework Agreement, it is the GSS intention to form an enduring professional relationship with a single apprenticeships training provider to deliver all of the Data Science Integrated Degree Apprenticeship Training for GSS member organisations across England.

Current indications are that approximately 50 apprentices will be recruited for August 2019 starts, with potential to grow in subsequent years.

We anticipate that the tender will be published in mid-January with a proposal return deadline of end of February, looking to enter into a contract with a supplier on 1st April 2019.

These dates are provisional and subject to change.

The contract duration will be between 3 and 6 years - this is yet to be confirmed.
