Prime Contractors

As a Prime Contractor looking to work with training providers on a subcontracting or associate basis, you need to be certain of the credibility, quality and capability of your partners. However, whilst it is critical to reduce the risk of contract failure to a minimum, finding the right partner from the thousands of training providers, freelance and other training resources can be a time-consuming and expensive job.

At Quattro, we are specialists in connecting our prime clients with providers who can help deliver growth.

Providers who meet their needs both in terms of the sectors they want to access, the geographical locations that have the demand and providing learner profiles that will ensure their growth cases are looked upon favourably by the SFA.

We have helped multiple primes grow their provision, sometimes multiplying their provision over a course of twelve months.

And despite the obvious resource required to run such a service, this is provided at zero-cost to the prime client

We can help ensure the credibility, quality and capability of  the partners you engage with.

How do we do this?

We take the time to get to know our primes, as the more we know about your needs and desires, the better the fit of the providers we identify.

How much funding do you have available?

What sectors do you want to focus on? This could be based on your own preferences (what you do, what you’d like to do) or indeed those of your LEP or the SFA (and it’s always a good idea to support their targets and provide destination data that ticks their boxes).

Where do you want to deliver that provision?

What criteria do you want a provider to meet? For example, what quality standards and/or accreditations do they need to have in place,what general or indeed more specific procedures and policies they must have in place and what level of financial stability must they demonstrate.

We specialise in pulling all of this information together and compiling the documents you need to make a considered approach to who you would like to work with. Saving you time and making the whole job a lot easier.

Why work with Quattro Consultancy

A question often asked as you could simply go out for the provision yourself, but do you really want to be inundated with the hundreds of providers who will be on the phone in pursuit of your funding.

Sorting the cream of the crop is a job in itself and we pride ourselves in being able to see past the words, asking the right questions and getting to know what an individual provider is really capable of and whether they would be the best match for your needs.

You want providers who will deliver what they promise, providers with the expertise in your target sector (a provider that understands your target sector is going to be able to add so much more value than someone who is just giving it a go), but more importantly providers who you can work with on a long terms basis, a win-win for all concerned.
