UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool City Region Combined Authority procured evaluation and economic analysis consultancy support for its Youth Guarantee Trailblazer (YGT). The requirement was to provide an independent evaluation of the programme’s design, implementation, outcomes, impact and value for money. The work is categorised as adult and other education services (CPV 80400000), with delivery across the Liverpool City Region. It is a public-sector consultancy requirement for a supplier able to assess a youth-focused employment or education programme and provide evidence-based analysis of how it was designed, delivered and what it achieved. The buyer is the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, based in Liverpool, and the requirement was awarded as a single service lot.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded. Liverpool City Region Combined Authority used a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to WAVEHILL LIMITED. The award date was 24 July 2026, and the contract was signed on 23 July 2026. The contract runs from 24 July 2026 to 30 July 2027. Its value is £74,675 excluding VAT and £89,610 including VAT. The selected service covers independent evaluation and economic analysis of the Youth Guarantee Trailblazer, including assessment of design, implementation, outcomes, impact and value for money. The contract is active and the award remains active, with WAVEHILL LIMITED identified as the supplier.

This award signals demand from Liverpool City Region Combined Authority for specialist public-policy evaluation and economic analysis linked to youth programmes. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this kind would need to evaluate programme design and implementation, measure outcomes and impact, and assess value for money independently. Credibility would come from a clear ability to combine qualitative and quantitative analysis, interpret evidence across a programme’s delivery model, and produce findings that support public-sector decision-making. Relevant experience in youth employment, education or skills interventions would help a competitor understand the operating context, while strong evaluation methodology and economic-analysis capability would be central to competing for comparable work from this buyer.
