Budget is based on year 1 anticipated funding. Overall funding is agreed on an annual basis and depends on the ESFA grant. Framework providers may submit proposals for courses in one or more lots. If a provider’s pricing proposal is accepted, it may not be accepted in full, however the minimum allocation to a provider will not be less than £10,000 or exceed a £100,000 maximum. This will be established with an initial duration of two years, with an option to extend for a further two one-year extensions.
