## Summary

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) has recently completed a tender process for the project titled "EHRC 1718-19 Assessing the effectiveness of the Public Sector Equality Duty specific duties in Scotland". This initiative falls under the industry category of equal opportunities consultancy services and is located within the United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 16th August 2017. The contract, valued at £62,000, commenced on 12th September 2017 and was set to end on 31st March 2018.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in equality consultancy, social research, and related services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies that can demonstrate expertise in assessing and implementing equality duties within public authorities may find this process especially beneficial for growth, leveraging their skills in social impact and policy analysis to engage in future contracts with public entities.

## Notice

The PSED consists of the general equality duty, supported by specific duties which are imposed by secondary legislation and which came into force in May 2012. This project will assess the extent to which three different elements of the specific duties in Scotland - outcomes, employee information and pay gaps - are delivering change, both within public authorities and for service users.
