This contract falls under the industry category of Research and Development Services and is valued at £16,495. The contract period is set to commence from 26th December 2020 and conclude on 31st December 2020. This tender reached its end date for submission on 25th November 2020 and was awarded shortly thereafter, on the same date. This tender represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in research and evaluation, particularly those with expertise in the arts and culture sector. Firms that can deliver independent meta-evaluations and possess the capacity to engage with multiple stakeholders to gather mixed-methods research would be particularly well-suited to compete in such tenders. The outcomes of this project could influence future funding and policy decisions within the sector, providing a strategic edge for successful bidders. ## Notice Arts Council is committed to continuing to build the evidence base of the role of arts and culture in driving and delivering positive economic and social outcomes in places. As we begin to deliver Let's Create , our 10-year strategy for 2020-2030, we want to understand the impact of arts and culture in contributing to places and communities, the role place-based investment programmes within the sector have played in delivering economic and social outcomes in place, and what can be learnt from these programmes to inform policy and future programmes which support place-based development. Arts Council is seeking an experienced researcher/evaluator to conduct an independent meta-evaluation, triangulating the overall impacts of Arts Council and wider sector place-based programme-level evaluations since 2012 and conduct further mixed-methods research with key stakeholders. The aim of the research is to provide a strategic overview of place-based investment by Arts Council and other funders, including interpreting and consolidating the key findings, learning and considerations from their programme-level evaluations and primary research. The project should provide a fresh and objective overview of place-based development and investment since 2012. The final report will clearly interpret and consolidate the key findings, learnings and considerations from the analysis and primary research for Arts Council and the wider sector. The final report will set out considerations, ideas and policy implications for Arts Council in supporting place-based work in the future. The research and final report will contribute to the building of our evidence base for the delivery of Let's Create and specifically the Outcome: Cultural Communities. It will also inform the wider DCMS policy context and support Arts Council in addressing the Government's evolving priorities such as the levelling up agenda. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4b34b983-628e-4f3b-8be8-c561f63c1cbd | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | SME | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Dec 2020 | | Submission deadline | 25 Nov 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 25 Nov 2020 | | Contract period | 26 Dec 2020 - 31 Dec 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £16,495 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £16,495 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE ARTS COUNCIL OF ENGLAND | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | WC1B 3HF | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | Bloomsbury | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | SHARED INTELLIGENCE | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ### Codes - 73000000 - Research and development services and related consultancy services ## Release History - 10 Dec 2020 at 11:50 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4b34b983-628e-4f3b-8be8-c561f63c1cbd ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/4b34b983-628e-4f3b-8be8-c561f63c1cbd 10th December 2020 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/delta/respondToList.html?noticeId=552636646 Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
