## Summary

The procurement process pertains to the evaluation of the "Evaluation of Innovative Resilience Programme" project, led by the Defra Network eTendering Portal based in London, England. This initiative falls within the flood prevention and social research services sectors. The tender period is set to conclude on 5th March 2021, while the contract period extends from 5th April 2021 to 31st March 2027. This project uses an open procedure for tendering and is valued at £499,007.50, which is classified as below the threshold for competitive quotations.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on flood prevention, resilience evaluation, and related social research services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can particularly benefit from competing in this tender, given the inclusive approach specified. Companies with expertise in environmental research, flood risk assessment, and resilience strategy development would be well-suited to participate, potentially expanding their client base and enhancing their portfolio in public sector contracts.

## Notice

This project will call on existing research and evidence gathered for recent studies including the Defra evidence review of the concept of flood resilience and work closely with parallel Environment Agency research investigating ways to monitor changes in flood resilience over time (FRS20228 is currently out for tender). FRS20228 will investigate ways to monitor flood resilience over time to better understand the impact of government policies and demonstrate the progress with the 25 YEP ambitions and FCERM Strategy. This project will evaluate the recently announced Flood and Coastal Resilience Innovation Programme. It will undertake a realist process, impact and economic evaluation to co-ordinate data gathering across the 25 areas in order to gain a better understanding of the cost-benefits of actions to improve resilience to flood and coastal erosion risk and consider which actions work, for whom, and in what circumstance. It will also undertake a process evaluation of the 4 long term investment pathways (adaptive pathways) to inform how other local areas can adopt similar principles or techniques in their flood and coastal erosion risk planning.
