Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the Scottish Government seeking services for the "Award of Review of the Regional Improvement Collaboratives (RICs) 2021." This initiative, categorized under research and development consultancy services, is taking place in Scotland. The procurement stage is currently at the Award stage, following the tender period which began on 26th April 2021 and continues until 31st October 2021. The awarded contract, valued at £30,400, has been signed as of 26th April 2021, and it's expected to deliver an independent analysis through various stakeholder interviews, with the aim to publish the final report by October 2021.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses experienced in research and analytical services, particularly those with a background in educational improvements and stakeholder engagement. Companies specialising in consultancy, data analysis, and research methodologies would be particularly well-positioned to compete, especially those familiar with the Scottish educational landscape and capable of conducting remote interviews. The nature of this project could allow smaller firms with niche expertise to showcase their capabilities, potentially leading to future collaborations or contracts with governmental entities.

Notice Title

Award of Review of the Regional Improvement Collaboratives (RICs) 2021

Notice Description

The aim of the research is to secure an independent analysis of the development and early impact of the Regional Improvement Collaboratives (RICs). The review takes the shape of a series of telephone based or online interviews with national, regional and local stakeholders and analysis of available evidence provided by the Scottish Government and RIC partners. The fieldwork will build on work that was undertaken between January and March 2020, before being paused due to the pandemic at the end of March 2020. This will inform a final report to be published in October 2021 which will support further development of the RICs. School interviews are required to be completed prior to the summer break where possible.

The review takes the shape of a series of telephone based or online interviews with national, regional and local stakeholders and analysis of available evidence provided by the Scottish Government and RIC partners. The fieldwork will build on work that was undertaken between January and March 2020, before being paused due to the pandemic at the end of March 2020. This will inform a final report to be published in October 2021 which will support further development of the RICs. School interviews are required to be completed prior to the summer break where possible.",
