## Summary

The procurement process titled "NCG190501T - Learner Destination Service for NCG" was conducted by NCG Corporation, based in Newcastle upon Tyne. The contract was awarded to J2 Research Ltd following an open tender that concluded on 12 July 2019. This initiative falls under the industry category of survey services, particularly focusing on capturing learner destinations in compliance with Ofsted requirements. The contract, valued at £102,000, commenced on 8 October 2019 and is expected to last until 7 October 2022.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in survey and research services, particularly those with experience in educational assessments and compliance. Companies that are small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and possess expertise in conducting customer surveys would be particularly well-suited to compete, as NCG aims to enhance its service delivery across multiple colleges by obtaining essential data on learner outcomes.

## Notice

Following an open tender NCG contracted J2 Research Ltd as an external agency to provide a service that captures the actual learner destination after they have left the college/ training provider. This is an Ofsted requirement and is essential information that NCG must capture and analyse to improve future performance across seven Colleges (Newcastle College, West Lancs College, Newcastle Sixth Form College, Carlisle College, Lewisham College, Southwark College and Kidderminster College) and adhere to the new Ofsted Education Inspection Framework (EIF) as from September 2019
