("Milestone" or the "Company")
Milestone's Mobile Business Solutions used to partner the Green Skills
Partnership
Milestone, the AIM quoted (AIM: MSG) provider of digital media and
technology solutions is pleased to announce the Green Skills Partnership
(GSP) is including both the Passion Project and Milestone's mobile
business solutions in its new initiative to get construction workers
into jobs.
In January 2015, the GSP, with Carshalton College leading, won a bid for
more than GBP300,000 to support the reengagement of unemployed
construction workers. The project aims to drive growth within the
Construction sector, supporting companies to grow and take on local,
suitably qualified labour. This will deliver social and economic benefit
to London. This programme is part of the Construction Industry Training
Board (CITB) project for construction and is a key project within the
Greater London Joint Initiative Programme, funded by the CITB and London
Enterprise Panel.
As part of the bid, GSP presented Milestone's mobile business solutions
as the method of ensuring both the individual construction workers and
the construction sites are compliant. Milestone will be using our
experience and technology in designing a bespoke mobile application that
can be used to collate the relevant data and share it in real-time to
ensure the efficiency and compliance of this project. The development of
this app follows the Company's recent work on the OnGuard product, which
is specifically designed for the security industry.
The use of the app within the GSP is expected to receive widespread
corporate exposure, not only helping the construction workers in this
project, but also opening up the potential for the Passion Project along
with the Company's other products and services to be included in future
bids and revenue streams.
The membership of the GSP partnership is wide and varied with over 40
current partners from the public and private sectors including employers,
Unions, training providers, local authorities and third sector
organisations (Housing Associations).
As a member of the GSP, Milestone and the Passion Project will benefit
from access to valuable funding opportunities and introductions, along
with revenue streams related to job vacancies, work placements and
learning opportunities.
