Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Government is currently finalising the contract for the "Award of Inward Investment Plan Measurement and Evaluation," a project aimed at enhancing evaluation frameworks for inward investment's contribution to Scotland's economy. The procurement process, which is in the award stage, followed a direct procurement method, allowing for the contract to be awarded to a single supplier without competition. This contract, valued at £6,200, was formally signed on 21 March 2022. The project's inception was rooted in the Scottish Government's Inward Investment Plan, highlighting its commitment to generating a significant number of jobs over the coming decade, with a particular focus on spillover benefits related to economic growth.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in research and consultancy services, especially those with expertise in economic development and evaluation frameworks. Companies that can offer robust analytical insights, including performance assessments and the ability to measure direct and indirect impacts of investments, would be well-positioned to compete for similar future contracts. With an emphasis on delivering quantified economic outcomes, businesses aligning with these criteria stand to benefit significantly from engaging in such public procurement opportunities.

Notice Title

Award of Inward Investment Plan Measurement and Evaluation

Notice Description

The Scottish Government's Inward Investment Plan (IIP) Action 17, underpins efforts to ensure the return on investment criteria encompasses the delivery of both direct, and wider 'spillover' benefits to Scotland's economy (delivering 100,000 jobs, including 20,000 from spillover benefits, over the next decade). Historically, inward investment measures have focussed strongly on the number of projects and the number of jobs a project is forecast to create. This work will help us to better understand and measure both the direct and the indirect jobs inward investment contributes to the Scottish economy.As part of delivering on the IIP action plan, the Inward Investment team are looking to procure services to provide constructive challenge to their thinking and processes to help shape the work and maximise the spillover benefits and understand the impacts of these under a new IIP Measurement and Evaluation (M&E) framework.
