description

On Track is one of four projects in the New Anglia LEP that has secured funding from the Building Better Opportunities Programme. The project started in 2017 and is due to finish delivery by March 2023.

Scope of the Document Retention Storage

On Track can be subject to an audit even after the project is completed and it is a requirement of funding that core documents are retained and made available for inspection over the entire period. These documents should be kept in an acceptable format so that they can be inspected where necessary.

As stated in the European Social Fund (ESF) Funding Agreement, ESF Grant Recipients are required to provide records to evidence that the expenditure in claims complies with the relevant regulations, rules and terms of the Funding Agreement, to enable the Managing Authority (MA) to meet its reporting obligations and to demonstrate compliance with European Union (EU) requirements.

As a lead organisation, On Track are required to retain evidence in line with the ESF Document Retention guidance to support post closure audits. We expect the capacity of storage required to be 50 archive boxes of documents. Storage will be required from 1st April 2023. Currently the estimated date for document retention is 31 March 2034.

Deliverables

We envisage that we will require:

Document retention storage for up to 50 archive boxes from 1st April 2023 to 31st March 2034
Access to documents in storage throughout this time period
Collection of boxes from Next Steps, 70-80 Oak Street, Norwich, NR3 3AQ, on or before 31st May 2023
Disposal of all data at the end of the storage period
Facility to make full payment up front on or before 31st March 2023
