Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Project Jumpstart to Success" was conducted by The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London, focusing on youth education services within specific London boroughs. This open competition aimed at mentoring NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) young people aged 16-24, was awarded on 5th December 2025 to Cultiv8 Ltd. The contract, valued at £100,000, will run from 15th December 2025 to 31st March 2026. The initiative is part of the GLA's UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) and involves collaboration with London Local Authorities and other partners, underlining efforts to support young Londoners into educational or career pathways. The procurement method was an open competition, specifically below threshold, which ensures a variety of eligible suppliers could participate.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in educational and mentoring services for young people, particularly those with a focus on underserved communities. Companies experienced in social services, especially those addressing the needs of NEET youth, those from minority backgrounds, and individuals with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), would find this opportunity beneficial for expanding their service outreach and impact. Cultiv8 Ltd's participation highlights the project’s alignment with large-scale organisations committed to social empowerment, suggesting a beneficial growth potential for businesses positioned to offer comprehensive support services to young individuals in London.
