    Brief

    Lincolnshire County Council is refreshing its Adult Skills and Employment Programme (ASEP) Light Touch Framework to onboard additional qualified providers. This is not a new framework—existing providers retain their positions automatically. The council seeks experienced organizations to deliver adult skills training, employability support, learner engagement, and related services across Lincolnshire. Applicants can apply for one or more of three framework lots: Non-Accredited Provision (Lot 1), Accredited Skills Provision (Lot 2), or Other Skills and Employment Related Activity (Lot 3). Selection will be competitive and based on published quality standards and evaluation criteria. Only providers meeting minimum thresholds will be admitted. Please note that framework admission does not guarantee future contract awards or minimum work volumes. Interested organizations should review the procurement documentation for full conditions of participation and application requirements.
