## Summary

The Skills Funding Agency has initiated a procurement process for a project titled "ESF funded activity to support individuals who are NEET in London LEP area."

The tender was published in June 2016, with the deadline for submissions set for 18th July 2016. The contract period runs from 19th September 2016 to 31st March 2018, with a contract value of £1,550,110, awarded through a selective procurement method using a restricted procedure.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in educational and vocational training services, including those focused on apprenticeships, training for the unemployed, and community learning. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete in this tender, which prioritises innovative and effective training solutions for the NEET demographic.
