This tender presents valuable opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in consulting services, particularly in monitoring and evaluation, social research, and forestry assessment.

Notice Title

Territorios Forestales Sostenibles (TEFOS) Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning

Notice Description

Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) services for the seven-year TEFOS programme which will provide grant funding to support the Government of Colombia (GoC) to tackle deforestation in conflict-affected areas.

Lot Information

Lot 1

TEFOS is a new flagship programme under the BEIS International Climate Finance . It will provide grant funding to support the Government of Colombia to tackle deforestation in conflict-affected areas, through three programme "pillars": i) strengthening land registry systems to incentivise sustainable land management, ii) strengthening the criminal justice system to tackle environmental crime in forestation hotspots, and iii) creating and promoting innovative, sustainable economic opportunities for communities. The MEL Partner will undertake monitoring and evaluation activity, which will assess whether programme outputs, outcomes and impact are being achieved. It will be important that in delivering the requirements, the MEL Supplier assesses how the individual effects of the different pillars work together to be more than the sum of their parts to realise the intended outcomes.

Renewal: The contract is to be for a period of 6.5 years, ending 31st December 2027 unless terminated or extended by the Department in accordance with the terms of the contract. The contract will be let for the full term (6.5 years). If agreed by both parties, the contract may be extended beyond the planned 6.5-year contract duration by up to three years to complete tasks which may have been delayed in delivery, to complete an extension of the same evaluation activities linked to a similar extension of the TEFOS programme or to allow suitable time for handover to a new organisation following re-procurement of comparable services. Take up of any extension period is subject to the Authority's approval and the continuing needs of the contract. The Authority reserves the right to increase the budget of the contract, and this decision would be based on the Authority's available funds and priorities, as well as an assessment of the programme's performance and the performance of the contractor.
