Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office commissioned monitoring, evaluation and learning services for its Global Serious and Organised Crime and Countering Exploitation portfolios. The work supports programme results management through independent evaluations, coherent reporting against agreed frameworks and milestones, and evidence on progress. It also includes building UK and host-country programme teams’ capacity to monitor results, working with project stakeholders to improve outcomes, synthesising evidence on portfolio-level impact against cross-government serious and organised crime objectives, and using lessons about effectiveness to improve programmes and value for money. Delivery is associated with London. This is specialist evaluation and programme-learning work for public-sector security and exploitation programmes, rather than a general research or consultancy requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to ITAD Limited on 13 October 2026. The awarded value is £2.6 million, with the contract running from 13 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement used a selective process through a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The original estimated procurement value was £350,000. The requirement was treated as a single procurement, with no separate lots identified. The stated evaluation criteria and specific participation requirements are not detailed in the available process information. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, but not for voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates Home Office demand for independent monitoring, evaluation and learning across serious and organised crime and countering exploitation programmes. A credible competitor would need to evaluate complex programmes independently, work with existing results frameworks, and produce reliable reporting against milestones across interventions, projects and portfolios. The work also calls for practical capacity-building with programme teams in the UK and host countries, engagement with project stakeholders, and the ability to turn evidence into decisions that improve outcomes and value for money. Portfolio-level synthesis must connect programme results to cross-government objectives on serious and organised crime. Small and medium-sized businesses were considered suitable, so relevant expertise and delivery capability matter more than being a large supplier.
