What is being bought

Published requirement description

BCP Council is looking for an Operator to run a Digital Skills, Innovation and Learning Hub (Hub) in space provided by the Council within the Royal Arcade, Boscombe. The Hub will function initially until 2026.

Digital skills, innovation and learning, built on a leading-edge digital connectivity foundation, lies at the heart of Boscombe’s success as a regenerated area, creating a digital and creative technology ecosystem to enable a much brighter future for all local residents and businesses. Igniting the aspirations of local residents, young and old, and local businesses, start-ups and established, for digital skills, innovation and learning, will feed the fire for Boscombe’s wide regeneration aspirations. The Hub will be free to use for Boscombe residents.

Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 60%
  • Price: 40%
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
