The GLA expects to procure a range of adult training services resulting in multiple contracts for services, amounting to approximately £130m. However, this value could go up to £200m over four years, subject to the final AEB allocation to GLA confirmed by DFE. It is intended that successful providers will enter into individual contracts to deliver a range of education and training services to both in-work and out of work London residents aged 19 or above, to help them gain qualifications, progress into further education and ultimately access and sustain employment. The procured AEB funding will be used as match to some of London's European Social Fund (ESF) allocation. All AEB provision procured through this ITT will, therefore need to be compliant with the ESF regulations. The services contracts are intended to be split into two lots targeting different priority groups. These two priority groups, namely people out of work and people in work, will have different eligibility criteria and corresponding outputs and results. Applicants will be able to bid for one or both Lots and if awarded funding to deliver training services to both priority groups, this is envisaged to be under a single contract. It is envisaged that the contract notice will be published on 12 October 2018 with contracts to be awarded around April 2019 for training to commence on 1 August 2019.
