Notice Title
Emergency End Point Assessment Framework Agreement
Notice Description
The ESFA is procuring a Framework Agreement for a small number of high-quality End Point Assessment Organisations (EPAO), who would be ready to act on an emergency basis as EPAO for Apprentices on a named apprenticeship Standard. This could occur if there is no EPAO already in place, for example if an Apprentice's planned EPAO had exited the market. EPAOs that are awarded a place on the Framework Agreement are called "Framework Suppliers". The ESFA wants to ensure that it has appropriate coverage for assessment of every Standard and every geographical location in England. The Framework also presents an opportunity for Framework Agreement Suppliers to support the assessment market. This tender will be ran through the Jaggaer portal where documents can be accessed via this link - https://education.app.jaggaer.com/web/login.html
