Major Projects Leadership Academy
Scope
We are working with the Infrastructure and Projects Authority (IPA), to develop a replacement contract for the current Major Projects Leadership Academy (MPLA). The MPLA programme develops the skills of senior project leaders across government, making it easier to carry out complex projects effectively.
The MPLA programme provides:
- a learning curriculum for the leaders of the government’s Major Projects Portfolio
- a support network made up of experts from the project delivery profession
- more senior leadership development such as programmes and workshops for directors general, permanent secretaries and ministers
Full details of the scope will be included in the bid pack issued with the contract notice.
Our objective is to source a delivery partner that will work with IPA to design the next version of the programme and deliver the MPLA.
The IPA works with the government and industry to make sure infrastructure and other major projects are delivered efficiently and successfully. As the contracting authority, the IPA is working with previous and current MPLA participants, heads of the project delivery profession, and potential bidders for the MPLA contract to capture their future business needs.
Supplier engagement
A virtual event was hosted by the IPA on Wednesday 20 May. This provided background about the IPA, the current MPLA delivery and current thoughts about the IPA’s future requirements. You can find a copy of the presentation here and the Q&A document here.
We will speak to the market again and will list any future events, one to one sessions or webinars on this page.
