## Summary

The procurement process involves the evaluation of Natural England's cross-organisational Science Evidence and Evaluation Strategy. Natural England seeks experienced evaluators to assess the strategy's design, implementation, and impact. The evaluation aims to determine the strategy's effectiveness in achieving organisational goals. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the contract period spans from December 5, 2022, to March 31, 2025. The deadline for tender submission is November 11, 2022.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the services industry, particularly those with expertise in environmental management. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete. The buying organisation is the Defra Network eTendering Portal in London, England. The procurement stage is currently active, offering businesses the chance to contribute to Natural England's strategic evaluation process.

## Notice

Natural England (NE) wishes to appoint suitably experienced evaluators to work with us to evaluate the design, implementation and impact of the Science, Evidence and Evaluation Strategy throughout the remainder of its lifetime and inform its subsequent evolution. The evaluation will be delivered across three phases and will include both real-time learning and a summative element. The overarching focus is to learn to what extent has the SEE Strategy and its implementation resulted in the organisation achieving the ambitions set out in the strategy. NE wish to learn from this to improve delivery both of this strategy and of future strategies. As this is a complex and dynamic environment, NE wish to adopt a Developmental Evaluation (or similar) approach to allow for methodological flexibility and build real time insight into the implementation of the strategy. The evaluators will adopt a collaborative approach to work closely with the SEE Strategy team throughout.
