How Do I Sign Up? -
Next Steps

Sign Up to Profit Through Productivity (PTP)

  1. To go ahead and sign up, please complete the 'Sign Up' Form for the PTP North East programme which you can download below. It's simple and straightforward - just print it off, fill it in and send it back to us.
  2. To qualify, your business needs to be based in North East England, i.e. in County Durham, Northumberland, Tees Valley or Tyne & Wear. You also need to employ less than 250 staff in your business*.
  3. If you have any questions and would like to talk to a member of the Hospitality and Leisure Manpower (HaLM) team first, you can email us at ptpnortheast@bpfprojects.co.uk or telephone Rob Bishop on 0208 977 4419 or use the form on the Contact Us page.
  4. Rob Bishop (your main contact at HaLM) will contact you to confirm your interest, check that places are still available and that your business is eligible. He can then review your 'Sign Up' Form and take you through the Sign Up process.
  5. You will then be assigned an accredited PTP Business Coach who will contact you to arrange an initial one-to-one session in your business and assist you in developing an Action Plan.
  6. We'll also invite you to a programme of workshops and seminars to help you to update your skills and knowledge in key areas.

* The '250 staff maximum' rule is based on 'full-time equivalent' staff
- Rob Bishop at HaLM on 0208 977 4419 can advise as required.
