## Summary

The National Citizen Service is seeking qualified organisations to conduct quality assessments for its delivery partners through an open tender process titled "NCS Trust Quality Assessments." This procurement falls under the services category, specifically focusing on performance review services (CPV Code: 79313000). The tender was published on 22 February 2021 and is set to close on 24 March 2021. The contract period will commence on 19 April 2021 and will run until 31 March 2022. The activities will take place across various regions in the United Kingdom, including the North East, North West, and London, with a minimum contract value of £600,000 and a total estimated value of £900,000.

This opportunity for businesses presents significant potential for growth, particularly for firms specialising in quality assurance and performance review services. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, especially those with experience in health and safety compliance and quality management systems. As the NCS programmes expand, successful bidders will play a crucial role in enhancing service delivery, thereby contributing to improved standards and safety across the NCS’s activities.

## Notice

NCS Trust uses third party organisations to assess NCS Trust's delivery partners to ensure NCS activities are consistently being delivered safely and to a high standard. Currently the NCS Trust assesses partners for Quality Assurance purposes and for Health & Safety compliance (including safeguarding). As NCS programmes and activities expand, we add new service lines and numbers of participants increase, there is a growing importance on ensuring quality, consistency and continuous improvement. To ensure NCS Trust is able to assess the quality of delivery to the level of detail, scrutiny and scale required, the NCS Trust requires a specialist organisation to undertake quality assurance assessments, a service which has matured since its inception.
