Invitation to Tender for The Growth Company's ESF - AEB Provider Framework
FIFTH RELEASE - DECEMBER 2020 AND NEW POTENTIAL AEB CONTRACT AREAS
We are pleased to invite you to submit a tender response to join our European Social Fund (ESF) and Adult Education Budget (AEB) Provider Framework.
This framework will cover future opportunities around our current Prime ESF and AEB contracts across The North West and South Yorkshire. This framework will be for providers of Skills Support, Employee Support in Skills and Supporting those Not in Employment, Education or Training (NEET) and Adult Education Budget.
** New Potential Contract Areas - South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire Adult Education Budget**
We have now updated the Framework (December 2020) to include two additional AEB contracts in South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire which the Growth Company are in the process of bidding for.
PLEASE NOTE - we have not secured these contracts and therefore if we are unsuccessful in obtaining these two contracts, we will not have opportunities for AEB in these two areas**
Bidders who have not already successfully joined this Framework and would like to partner with GC for delivery of GC's existing prime ESF and AEB contracts, or join the new EOI opportunity AEB in South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire, are required to apply to this Framework. From admittance on to the Framework, we will issue a mini competition to identify partners to name in our AEB South and West Yorkshire bid.
Partners who are already on the Framework and wish to register their interest in this area for delivery of AEB in South and West Yorkshire, and be included in the Mini competition for these areas, are required to resubmit Document D, Matrix of Delivery to identify their offer in these geographies. You do not need to reapply to the Framework.
